(Note: This entry is from several weeks ago,)

I hit a major snag with my blood sugar control in the last few weeks. My blood sugar started going up, up, up. And my insulin doses followed. At 28 weeks pregnant, I knew this was to be expected, but I didn't quite know what to do about it.

Really weird things started happening. Like feeling low 15 minutes after eating lunch and testing to find my blood sugar dropped 20 to 30 points after eating. But having just eaten, I would ride it out on the couch for a while until it started to come up. (I am so grateful to have the luxury of working from home!)

Wouldn't you know it, at the two-hour mark, it was higher than it should be (my doctor set my goals at 120 two-hours after meals, with a note not to worry if its 130). Concerned but not consumed with worry, I'd test again an hour later and find it was yet higher. Another hour later, higher still. (READ MORE)
