:) and :( and :) and ???

Whew!  It has been a while, yes.  But my goodness sooo much has happened!  The end of March I did get my act together and got the CGMS test through my D Educator...my new sensor came within 2 weeks after that...still not sure what that cost me (or should I say the insurance company since they haven't figured out the money part, but I have met my deductible).  And I also was approved for a new pump (with all kinds of fun features that work well with the CGMS system!!).  So April and May were learning months - holy cow - my blood sugar does WHAT when I eat?  And then it was time to start trying to get pregnant.  Yep, we are lucky and it happened the very first month we tried! 

I like to say that I am 'cautiously optimistic', but in reality I am still in disbelief that I am really pregnant - despite the fact that I have had positive tests at home and a positive blood test at the Dr.  Then, when I am not in disbelief I am scared out of my mind that this pregnancy will end the way the last one did. 


But I am going to be positive and visualize a healthy baby (girl if you ask my mother) that will be here around Valentine's Day 2011.  And I am so excited!  Praying that all goes well inside and I am doing well keeping my blood glucose in the recommended range (which lately has seemed very unlikely...) 

Until next time :)
