Pootz In Boots

Mine is a life worth living and if I could turn back the clock, I would play the same scene at the same speed with the same players... regrets? Of course I have some but that adds the colours to this life..

39 weeks



BSP okay at 120/75, HbA1c at 6.2 is good, Fructosamine 188 is good, AFI is 58 (alot!!) and baby is measuring at around 38 weeks, weighing below 2.5kg.



I am booked for c-section on 22nd August 2011, 2 days short of my EDD. I am nervous. Allah please give me strength.



I love you, baby Abdullah Sulaiman.

Ramadhan......... pregnant and blood sugar profile

Alhamdulillah, despite initial worries, I have managed the 10 days so far, having practised for 7 days prior to this month with my qadha (replacement) for the days I have missed last year. 3 hours and 30 minutes more to go for my 11th day. I have been fine. No hunger and no dehydration and most importantly my blood sugar profile is stable and within control. Baby is not complaining either. I have to make sure I do not miss the pre-dawn meals (sahur), with sufficient intake of complex carbs, sugar and fluid. Absolutely no cafeine and simple carbs during this fasting month, except for minute amount just to quench the desire but I have managed.
I will probably miss a few days of fasting, if my baby decide to enter the world (outside my womb, that is) before the Eid which is well within his term. I hope I do not have to celebrate Eid with a big tummy.
