I love the high risk O.B. His accent reminds me of Gomez Addams, and his relaxed attitude is contagious. Even though recalling him now I couldn’t tell you what he looks like, I left with the impression that he’s sexy. Accents. Why do they do that to us?
He actually said “oh-you had a few contractions? well, if they get regular, just call us, OK? You know what you’re looking for.” And “Your fasting sugar is perfect. So these high sugars-they’re related to food. So, you know, just figure out what you’re eating to get those high readings, and then just… don’t. It will take you a while to figure out what you can eat and what makes your sugar rise. The dietician cannot tell you that because it’s individual.” (HA!) When I asked him if these few high sugars are hurting the baby or making him grow huge, he smiled indulgently and said simply, “no”.
Ha!
I’m kind of glad to hear you thought he was sexy…..I did, too!
Hooray!!!
