Hugs Harmie. I loved my grandparents when they were around. I miss writing them letters, which reminds me I need to write to dh's grandma. Anyone is lucky to have them around for awhile. Mine all passed away by the time I was in junior high. Wow, more than 20 years ago. Makes me want to get a dog I can take to old folks homes and just talk to the older generation. They always have wonderful stories.
Well, we met with the doula yesterday. We love her and even DD loved her. She is wonderful. She is the only one is town we found out because there really isn't a lot of demand for them. She does about 3 births a year and only for $375 because she just loves to work with laboring women. Though she has a lot on her calendar before and right after my due date so we are going to meet with one that is about an hour away. She is just getting certified and might be free because she needs the experience under her belt. Anyways, so we will meet with her and if I feel a really good vibe with her I might just go with her because I will know that she will be able to take me as a client. The doula in town doesn't mind either way since this isn't her main source of income and the other lady needs the experience. So, we'll see, I will need to contact the other soon. Pretty exciting!! I thought it was going to be more expensive and am glad having a doula at least in our area is going to be a little more doable with us trying to buy a house this year before the baby comes.
It's interesting though, I'm kind of worried. I haven't been as hungry lately and my insulin intake is going lower and not higher. I have been eating more fat though and less carbs. More closer to a paleo diet again. My endo is trying to put me in the hospital though, I disregarded her suggestion about upping my insulin after drinking juice every couple hours because my blood sugar is going low all night long. I'm thinking maybe what the Nutrition Response Testing Doc has me taking might be finally really helping me heal and allow my body to take over some of the insulin duties again and maybe my heavy metal load is getting lighter and therefore my body is healing more because of that as well. I wish my body could tell me what's going on. I'm happy even though I'm worried that I'm taking less insulin than I was in the beginning of this pregnancy.
