CGM

I got my continuous glucose monitor put on today. I am feeling very iffy about it for silly superficial reasons, such as hating having yet another thing attached to my body (when I already am feeling quite awkward smuggling a melon in my shirt, volcanic eruptions on my previously acne free skin, and horrible stretch marks). I am happy, however, to have another tool to begin helping me keep my diabetes in better control, since becoming pregnant has made this MUCH more important to me.

Feeling icky

Not feeling very good today :( tummy is upset and headache, plus all the other aches and pains. I start physical therapy tomorrow for the Sciatica pain.
Blood sugars have been good for the most part, as long as I remember to bolus at least fifteen minutes before I eat and count carbs right I think it's going pretty well... still having a very hard time remembering to write down BGs though, so I have got to do that for the doctor next week!
I am still working as a part time receptionist.. well it's more like security, aid, phone answering service hahaha but the elderly residents are sweet and as long as my legs keep moving I should be able to continue working through the pregnancy God Willings :)
Baby shower plans are underway for two showers, one in Billings and one in Powell, so that should be fun i guess haha.
