I really don't know what I'd do if I was diabetic. I HATE needles.

It runs in my family, So I was told most likely i was. I had to do that blood gluose test three times. Ugh! I did a month worth of blood testing just so they can say I was diabetic. I only have 29 days left and I am on a spiecal diet and i have to check my blood sugars 4 times a day. I am hoping she comes a bit early, so i can get myself back to normal and i can have my fingers back.

Wow! I don't think that I could do it. I started out this pregnancy by going to the ER for IVs before I even had my first OB appointment. When I went to that she started me on home IVs and the first night the nurse came to set that up I passed out when she was inserting the needle. So I told her to come back the next day when Hubby was home to show me how to do my IVs. Then since I was watching what was going on I threw up. The only way I can deal with blood draws and shots and stuff is to NOT watch and to not know when it's coming. Thankfully Hubby was willing to learn how to do my IVs for me.

Oh Goddess! * Yawns* I am soo sleepy. I am going on a extensive grocery shopping trip today. Because I feel that she may be coming within the next week. Did you guys ever get that feel right before you had your children. I didn't with my first. But I was 17 and was busy getting straight A's and getting ready for college to notice what was going on with my body. Now I can notice everything and feeling inpending doom. Lillian ( the baby) is still a bit active, she does have her inactive days. Which worries me sometimes. But other than the feeling of something bad is going to happen. I feel fine. Finally my fiance got a job. He reality hit him when he couldn't pay for his everquest anymore and rushed out and found a job. *rolls eyes* Reality should have hit when i got pregnant. But oh well, I have been getting stuff everyone pay check from the beginning. Stocking up on diapers,wipes, rash, clothes. I know I'll never be fully ready. But it is worth a try

yeah, thanks! I just love photoshop!

If you wanna know how I did it:

1.) My avi was wearing the white ruffled top over the white wool top, and when paired with the white nurse skirt and pants of any kind, it makes it look like a long white tunic shirt. So copied the picture of her with her arms at her sides into photoshop.

2.) Then I changed the position to have her fron arm bent and copied that into photoshop too.

3.) Then I used the smudge tool to bulge the belly out on the arms to the side version until I thought it looked like I want it.

4.) Then I used the polygon select tool to cut the bent arm of the other one and copied it to the pregnant one.

5.) Of course then I noticed the hand was in a fist so I cut, rotated, and smudged the open hand off the first one to fit on the new bent arm.

6.) After I erased what was left of the first arm at her side, I flattened the image and voila! Pregnant Me!

sweatdrop Well, my feelings were right. My sugars have been outragous. I'm on a strict diet and I can only eat what they tell me I am allowed to eat and it is still raising my sugars above 200. So yesterday i did something really stupid and didn't eat. But took my sugars like I would ormally do at the same times . My sugars stayed at 100 the whole day. confused Wtf. Well, I went back to eating again today and again sugars out the roof. *sighs* Ontop of it . My doctor yesterday told me I am going for another ultrasound and that she thinks its a tad werid that I was having contractions on the stress test but I couldn't feel any of them and they were supposedly really strong. She checked the baby and to see if I am dialated and nothing... The baby's heart beat is strong and she doesn't want to move even when being forced to by the doctor. I have no idea what is going on with my body at this point. I woke up this morning feeling like a train hit me several times. neutral I'm home alone with my 5 year old son and he isn't making it easy on me. He is driving me completely insane today. GRRR but anyways.. i m must stop my pointless rambling and get off the computer... So later.

Mor Righ Anu: I'm sorry to hear about your sugars!

Yeah, I had the same kinda thing. When I had my daughter I went in for an induction. They used a ripening agent (because I was still just a 1+ dilation) and they were going to start me on pit in the morning. Well during the night I was showing contracitons on the monitor that I didn't feel. No one really said much about it though. My daughter was born at 7:48am. No pit for me thankfully!

I hope that all goes well for you!
