mellybrellyMidwife just called to check in on me, I let her know about what happened this morning, in a nice way, but so she knows that communication still needs to be cleared up. She wanted to make sure I wasn't feeling stressed, and that everything was okay, and to tell me to call if I needed anything this weekend.
She phoned the diabetic specialists who confirmed that exercise could alter the results of the GD test, and she still was unsure about the carboloading, but they did confirm that cutting back on carbs would lead to a false negative, and it was better to remain balanced. I reminded her that I didn't mean to go eat 30 pita the night before, but to add in a piece of bread and a piece of fruit, as is suggested by most mainstream physicians. I think she's afraid I'm doing something crazy.
I think she feels bad about how this has gone down. Maybe a good step in the right direction? We'll see how this week goes, if I need to change my providers or not.
Lila has a friend who is a doula, I need to talk to Tim about if that's something we want or not.
Went to IKEA with Amy, bought a sweet little mobile with bugs for the baby, and a new duvet set for Reagan (hearts!), plus a flower lamp for her wall, plus a big heart rug for her floor. She's always putting a baby blanket down on the floor as a rug, so I couldn't resist. It'll be a "big sister" gift from the baby. Means I also need to buy her some new sheets, and a new bed skirt as well. Her bedroom will need a paint job, maybe this summer, plus I want to move everything around when we refinish the dresser for her. (Might be a while with baby coming for that to get done)
I can't forget to go check on the neighbour's dogs and rabbit today, it's hot out and I want to make sure they still have water. Think I'll do that right now.. and take out dinner while I'm thinking about it.
