NST for the Insulin Impaired

Originally uploaded by ‘Scratch’.

Trials? Hardly. Sure – we’re a little more nervous that perhaps we need to be – but at the end of the day, we’re just making mountains out of foothills.

As a gentle nudge from the creator has now put Lin on insulin for the gestational diabetes, we are blessed with the opportunity to spend 20 minutes a week listening to Ben do his thing in the bellytron.

Part of our new routine is weekly monitoring of fetal stress. Because of the daily injections we will monitor the baby to ensure that he is doing well until it’s time to come out of the oven. Our benefit? 20 minutes of giggling and snickering at his ‘antics’ .

Just a few weeks left… unprepared… like I could be eh?
