Insulin upped
Hi, I’m currently 34+6 and just had to have my insulin upped from 0-0-4 (last meal) to 0-2-6. I’m on insulin as my body wasn’t agreeing with metformin and was making me so unwell.
I’m honestly struggling mentally after the diabetic midwife made me out like I was failing my baby. My highest ever reading has been 7, 2 hours after mt last meal. My fasting has only ever been 0.1 above twice in the last month or so.
Baby was on 21st percentile today and I thought that was a good sign until I was in the room and he made me feel like It was all my fault.
Can I request an early induction due to the GD affecting my mental health? I’m back in 2 weeks time and I’ve already got such bad anxiety over it
I just want to say that I can relate to feeling guilty / like this is my fault and I’m also struggling to cope with my mental health since the diagnosis of GD. You are doing so well and are so close to meeting your baby. Don’t give up 🤍✨
