{{{Laura}}} All sorts of ~ma headed your way.

My readings have both been high this morning. I have no idea why.

Our wings are not tired.

How high? If it isn't adequately controlled by diet (This Is Not Your Fault!!), then they may have to put you on medication. Remember, only a few months. This is something you don't have control over, so just keep the end goal in mind.

Oh #1 son! I used to say Emmett ate like a dog face first in a garbage pail, and would literally eat until he threw up. But he learned. He really did.

Oh they do learn, that is one of those that I will pull out the "I told you so" cards on though.

"There are few hours in life more agreeable than the hour dedicated to the ceremony known as afternoon tea."

A few points above average for this morning and 7 points above target for post breakfast.

What is target? Also don't know if your pregnancy will let you do this but a ten minute stroll immediately after eating does wonders for blood sugar - more than intense exercise, more than moderate exercise. It can be a strolll circling the living room while reading on your tablet or watching the tube.

My fasting target is 60-95, which I have yet to meet.

My two hour after meal target is 60-120, and I have met that target every day except this morning. I was fairly lazy on the couch yesterday. So, maybe that has something to do with it.

I have never heard of a blood sugar target below 70. 60 is low blood sugar. Not dangerously low, but not good and definitely cranky territory. Maybe GD is different but was that target given by someone who is a diabetes specialist? 120 is an ok top figure - I mean really it is good if you can manage. when you say post breakfast you mean two hours after breakfast? cause sooner you can't expect to be under 120.

Maybe GD is different but was that target given by someone who is a diabetes specialist?

Or by the nurse who flipped out over 1 gram of carbs? Because this nurse is quickly losing credibility with me.

Also when I say 60 is not dangerous, I realized that is to adults. I have no idea what risk a mother being at 60 poses to an unborn.
