Katy replied to Kathy's discussion 'Very HIGH blood sugars in Early pregnancy instead of LOWS?' in the group Oh! BABY!!!"Hi there! I went through the same thing you are going through now. Weeks 1-6/7 I was high and my basal was also up by 50%! Then, around week 8 I've had constant lows. Just hang in there, adapt as quickly as you can and get ready for a ride! :)"

Hello Everyone, thanks for stopping by! Here are some random facts about me: I usually end up choosing the broken shopping cart, with wheels that stick. I speak Portuguese. My cat eats romaine lettuce. I'm a portrait artist. I can use their, there and they're in their proper contexts. I love the discovery channel. I think that racism is silly. I'm not elderly but I love Canasta! I think tomatoes are gross. I'm trying to be a better Christian. I believe that flossing is essential. I've never watched Mary Poppins. I tried to memorize the dictionary when I was 12. My favorite color is burgundy.
