My endochrinologist appointment went well. My latest A1c was 5.6% which averages a blood SUGAR of 100. He was pleased. However, it seems that K's body is starting to revolt against her insulin and she is taking way more than before. The Dr. said that this is normal and the dosages can even double before it is all over.
According to the fetal echocardiogram, A and B have perfect little fetus hearts. This was quite a long test (almost 2 hours) and quite frankly was boring...how many times can you see them measure some valve or chamber and then some associated heartbeat stuff?? The most interesting things were:
- A and B had both turned headup (they were headdown just 2 days prior!!)
- K could feel B having jerky little hiccups and could simultaneously see the jerking on the screen!
- Babies have 2 little "shortcuts" in their hearts since they don't use the lungs. These close up 1-2 days after birth.
