hey all

So I’ve had scan, obstetrics and diabetes appointments today. They all went well, no concerns. Little one still has little legs but they are growing and have moved slightly up the percentile rung so he’s getting there. Been promised there’s nothing to worry about.

Diabetes wise I’m taking enough insulin now to feed a small army but thankfully only a few weeks left. Been given my plan for basal/bolus ratios for post baby arrival which is good and organised and the reduction will be much appreciated!

Breastfeeding is being pushed now - this bugs me but I guess to be expected.

Final stretch... one more scan in 2 weeks!
 
That's good news . There's a push to promote breastfeeding, but I'm sure nursing staff and midwives will be supportive no matter what you decide.
