Well, I now look like the belly has a baby in it rather than burgers.
Last week my insulin requirements in the morning really spiked - I got started on novorapid from 4U. Which didn't seem to touch the sides, and each day I quickly went up to 6 then 8 then 10 units and at 10 it seems to have plateaued.
It's really easy to forget the added steps to the routine -- and yesterday I forgot to test my fasting somehow, and today I forgot to take the novorapid.
In any case I just keep going and I'll do it better tomorrow.
People say they have trouble sleeping from the baby moving. That hasn't been a problem yet.
I can feel it rolling a lot, and sometimes it's really nuts and you can see the movements externally.
If I'm walking - then I can't feel any moving. It's usually when I'm sitting down to do anything is when it's obvious.
Funnily it likes to push against surfaces. Like, if I'm laying on my left it likes to kick or move against the left side.
If I switch to my right side, then the kicks turn to the right side against the bed.
What's also funny, is that it doesn't seem to ever not be in ROL position.
It's defiantly not engaged. I can palpate the head sitting above my pubic bone on my right side. and I think its back is laying on the right, there's a solid section right there, that's always there and I keep waiting for it to move, but it doesn't seem to change.
I know I should do some yoga and squats and stuff but I have iso malaise and it sucks.
Not to mention, I pee when I sneeze or cough if I hadn't recently gone to pee.
Sighs.
The big question is, can I remain covid free for the next 6-8 weeks? with 5000 + cases testing positive daily? If I wasn't pregnant then I'd just resign myself to getting sick, but I don't like the consequences of getting covid during pregnancy. If I'm sick whilst in labour, I know they do their best but everything will be delayed. They take the placenta for histopathology, I'd be separated from the baby whilst the paed has to check it ... it all round sucks balls.
