The joys of mother hood!! Being a mother is such a experience that we can share with lots of other mums on mums-room.
when i first got told i was pregnant at the age of 18, i was over whelmed as when i was 16, i was told by my GP that i could never have children as my hormone level was far too low!! At 18 i feel pregnant, and was told at my 14 week scan i was expecting twins as there was another sack, but i had lost it! at that point i remember looseing a small amount of blood a few weeks b4 at work, but never thought anything about it.I went to see the GP and he gave me a internal and said everything is fine. i then had tyler (my son) in 2005 he was 3 weeks early and weighed 9lb 2 oz.and what a change he made to my life :) we moved out of my mum and dads when tyler was 3 months old, and got a 2 bed ground floor flat. When tyler was 4 we moved into a council house up the road from where we was in the flat. At 24 i found out i was expecting again, i was a bit scared as when i had my 1st, i had to have a c section because of the size of the baby and because im diabetic! I had to have another c section with my second, and Tia (my daughter)was 2 weeks early and weighed 8lb 15 oz. Both of my children are healthy, and have made such a huge difference to my life! I would like to hope that prehaps one day i will beable to loose a bit of weight (its really hard as im diabetic) and have another baby. i would love to have a set of twins, but i would be happy with what ever i get given. I know that if i do have another baby, it will be via c section again. This worrys me a little but not alot, to know i could have another baby again, then i would have another c section.
Being a diabetic puts alot of strain onto the body and its not easy as you cannot live a ordinary life like other people. i am on 4 injections a day, sometimes more if i need the insulient due to sugars being high, my feet are bad, with lots of tough dry skin, and my eyes are bad too. im only 26, so i dread to think of the condition my body will be in, in 10 years time. Loseing weight is so hard, and i think if your a diabetic, then you would understand. its not as easy as liveing on salads to loose the weight, we as diabetics need our carbohydrates and a limit amount of sugar.
Prehaps one day, there will be a device that will help us better :)
