so... I knew it wouldn’t be great but it’s actually not as bad as expected at 59. But considering I was at 43 when pregnant I have a long way to go!

Grainger that's pretty good after all the stresses & strains you've had...and you're caring for a new baby...darned good if you ask me...give yourself a little time...there is some way to go but ease up on yourself a little...enjoy your weekend with your family🙂
 
Good stuff Grainger. You’ve a lot to cope with at the moment. Just keep on keeping on and it will come down gradually.
 
Well there you go - it was as expected then so well done for guessing that right!

Er, can I just remind you that this is a marathon - not a sprint!

Thanks 🙂 I’m not good at being patient!

Haha :D nothing except baby near by the throw and I think that’s frowned upon!
 
That’s not bad at all grainger!
My first one post baby number 2 was 7.3% which is close to 59 I think ?
Anyway he’s 21 months now and I still find it difficult to focus on the D at times. I try but it’s hard.
There’s so much emphasis on good control pre pregnancy and throughout pregnancy then the baby arrives and you’re so busy it can be very hard to find the time to focus on the D (no one tells you that beforehand )
Be patient you’re doing very well ! X
 
I'm a great grandma but my co-ordination isn't that bad, especially something that size and so cuddly! (cricket balls - forget it)
 
Well done Grainger. New baby and reasonable HbA1c.
