haha i also haven't entirely given up on heels. i just avoid wearing heels to clinic. simple as that :D

and that's precisely why i question the value of doing the blood prick test on selected days when it is just so easy to rig it. it's just more burden on the patient (financially - cos the strips aint cheap, they are the expensive parts, physically and probably emotionally).

These few nites after reaching home, I find that I have difficulty taking out my wedding band. But in the morning, no prob wearing at all. Is that water retention or has my finger grow fat at nite?

Water retention. .. mine also happen at night or late afternoon

I already stop wearing since 1st trimester

When i wear i kenna water retention when i remove my fingers back to normal
Guess it kind of restrict blood flow ?
Only happen to me in this pregnancy. . Last 2 pregnancy i can wear all the way until delivery suite whereby we need to remove all jewellery n nail polish etc

Good morning mummies! Wah I think fatigue is coming back as I cross into the 3rd trimester, slept the whole day yesterday! N today still almost could not wake up for work :p

The glucose drink yesterday ain't bad, I just imagined it to be warm Sprite n I finished it in 10 seconds, hehe. KK says if it's bad news they will call me within a week. If it's good news they won't call. Haiz. Today I'm going buffet for lunch, before I become officially banned. Oh yesterday while passing time, I stumbled upon a second Mothercare shop (not the main one) that's selling past season items at half price! So mummies going to KK can check it out, it's the outlet that's facing the food court, past Delifrance. They have a lot more girls stuff though, super sweet n pretty. I bought a 2 pcs bodysuit for $16, 3 pcs long sleeve romper for $15, n 2 pcs shorts for $9. Shop until I almost missed my 2nd blood draw lor :p

My dr got order one blood test to test the blood glucose every 3 months no need to drink orange sweet drink. Heng ah I blur blur go take the test lucky passed lor.
Click to expand...
ahah ya that one is like a "video" of how u have been doing the past 3mths. the test u take after meal is a snapshot at that moment. they rly r watchign u like a hawk man....

cos u know ah...for some ppl who have well-controlled diabetes, the HbA1c test is done...every 6mths.
 
gammahedging said:
haha i can't see any big difference between a glucose reading of 7 and 7.2 after dinner. if it isnt gg to kill me or the bb, just leave it!

It will add pressure to beanie. And aft deliver bb don get usual supply from u dr said bb will on medication till stablise else from got sugar supply drop too low bb body cannot take it.
For me I don't want adding pressure to bb. So if everytime reading ok when come out bb can adapt easily.
But of course it is still depends on how u wanna handle it. It is our way in food intake no one can control us.

burger...assuming u dont drink coke ah, u sure pass the 2 hr postprandial test one. cos that is protein based. and that brings back the point i was trying to drive at yest... shld we be so hung up over the numbers and SOP, that u end up choosing to eat a burger all the time and get a very good reading 2 hrs later, or have some carbs (which u need) + veg + fruit, but that may give u probably...say a reading of 7.2 ( i tried testing for fun last night, after i had pumpkin rice + apple) or 7.5. Numbers alone do not mean a thing unless u view everything as a whole IMO.

I think you better have a call with MOM and discuss your situation. I felt you are entitled to your maternity leave even though the company is going to fold soon...

last year, I know a MTB whose company is folding before her EDD. They talk to their management into giving them retrenchment and for herself the maternity benefits. They sort of "threaten" to bring matter to MOM if management do not agreed. In the end, my friend got her 4 months maternity leave (in cash) and other retrenchment benefits.

BRIDGE & CROSSING

There is a pedestrian bridge about 100m away and a traffic light crossing about 200m away, but she did not use them.

But she was not jaywalking as she had crossed the road at a point where the nearest pedestrian crossing was more than 50m away.

Mr Shah said his wife did not use the overhead bridge as she would have to go a long way.

"We always crossed over there (where the accident happened), just like so many people. I didn't think it would be risky."
