Normal Schmormal.

Guess what?! I'm pretty sure I'm normal now! I'm going to define "normal" as what my doctors would describe a "normal" pregnancy complicated with diabetes (or diabetes complicated by pregnancy?)- resistant to insulin! Isn't it so funny that I'm excited to have high blood sugars?! I know, right. Insane, I think so too. Well, we've waited and waited for me to get the point where my body would become resistant to insulin. It has! I've take 60 units of insulin today. WHOA! I'd never normally do that! The placenta is actually what is resistant to insulin, so I must over compensate for that. Occasionally I'll bottom out because of the ginormous amounts of insulin I take at one time. Thus far, a low number has only reached 55. So let's all sing joy joy joy! I still can't believe I'm excited about this! BUT if you knew what the heck I've been dealing with, with the lows you'd be excited too. I feel hopeful for tomorrow's appointment now! Like finally you've dealt with the problems I'm having, now you can direct me in a helpful way! Yay! I can't wait. That and tomorrow I should get to schedule an ultrasound to see what the gender is. I can't wait I've never been more confused in my life. Boy, girl, boy, girl, girl, girl, boy. LOL. ;)

Until next time...LOVE!
