Update on Christy
I had another check up today. Seems my glucose levels are too crazy to control with just a change in diet. So, I'm on medication now, and I have to go in twice a week. One day will be a check-up, and they'll hook me up to the monitor to count Cora's movement and any contractions. The other day will be to get an ultrasound to monitor Cora's breathing and fluid levels. And, I will be induced the 39th week (I'm at 37 weeks now) if she hasn't already come before then, which could happen. Carleigh was three weeks early, and Luke was two weeks early. Emma came on her due date. I'm at a one right now. I'm not too thrilled with the idea of being induced since I've never done that before. Everyone is different, but I prefer to do things naturally with no drugs and no intervention. We'll see. I'm sure everything will work out for the best. One thing I'm sure of is that I'm just ready for a big piece of chocolate cake!
