Another day at GlenEagles

Went to office this morning but realised that I had a lot of discharge. So went to the hospital again. 4th day in a row I am seeing the gynae. Sigh... I was put on CTG again today for about half an hour but there was no contractions. One bad news was that I had gestational diabetes.
Doctor shared the risk of GD, preterm, and what could be done. Since baby is still at border line of pre-term/full term, she prefer that I carry the baby till mid wk37 so that this would lessen the chances of baby lungs being immature. So most likely baby needs to be induced next week. Meanwhile, I have to take care of my diet and starting on Saturday, I need to prick myself for 7times a day to check for sugar level. Today, I had to see the dietician and that cost me $75 for 20minutes.

It was disheartening to hear about me being +ve GD at this point in time. But look on the bright side, one more week and the baby would be out. :)
