Kate replied to annarebekah's discussion 'Should I inquire more or settle with dr. suggestion?' in the group Oh! BABY!!!"Well, you have great advice, but let me throw my 2 cents in. I was induced at 37 weeks and gave birth vaginally. However, he got stuck (shoulder distocia -sp?). That caused a few issues and he hung out in the NICU for 5 days. In the grand scheme of…"

Kate replied to Sue59's discussion 'Do You Use Protective Plastic on PDM Screen ?' in the group OmniPod Users"I use one. (Guess I'm the only one! haha!) It is a "cut your own size" one from Target. Seems to do the trick."

Kate replied to Re's discussion 'deciding on a pump and overwhelmed'"oh and I want to add that I don't really care if people see it an ask what it is. Therefore the "hiding it" factor didn't really apply to me. :)"
Kate replied to Re's discussion 'deciding on a pump and overwhelmed'"My experience is similar. I chose the pod for the auto-insertion and could not go without it! I love the pod.

Kate replied to Amy2188's discussion 'Pregnant and very confused ..'"Hi Amy - Congratulations on your pregnancy! It sounds like your pregnancy is similar to mine. My son was born at 37 weeks back in February. Like you, I started seeing lows around week 34. My perinatologist and endo were in close communication…"
Kate replied to annarebekah's discussion 'Would LOVE to hear some birth stories...' in the group Oh! BABY!!!"How did you deliver? What was the reason? Vaginally. I was induced at 37 weeks as my bgs were dropping and they were concerned that the placenta was starting to fail. I had an amnio to determine lung development. I was really scared about the amnio…"
Kate replied to Trishaleerobin's discussion 'New Here - 22 Weeks' in the group Oh! BABY!!!"Congratulations! My first (a boy as well!) was born on 2/8/12. Pregnancy and T1 was a lot of work, but he was worth all of it!"
Kate commented on jrtpup's group 'What's on your mind?'"I am loving this weather! I just got back from a walk to meet up with another T1 for coffee.
Coffee + another T1 in the wild + sunshine = perfection!
Hoping for the best for you tomorrow, Doris!"
