Forgot to mention that I also learned yesterday that my kidneys are starting to show signs of not handling my sugar intake very well. This happened with Luke when I had my sugar test done at 28 weeks. Although I never tested positive for gestational diabetes, I was probably borderline. Dr. M said that since I was exercising throughout the pregnancy with Luke, I probably offset the condition.
Now that I am on the couch, immobile, this will be an issue for me this time more than likely. Dr. M told me that the diabetes rates for women on bed rest were much higher.... SO-- that means no more sugar for me!
This will be a challenge since I love cakes and all things chocolate! It at least made being on the couch a little easier to bear! Oh well-- yet another lesson in self control and sacrifice.

Good grief, girl! This is getting more and more serious! Over the holidays too???
I was praying for you before, but I just may wear my knees out over the single issue of chocolate deprevation!
