The good, the bad and the ugly

Well after being told yesterday that I would only see the doc regarding my blood sugar levels I was surprised when she told me I'd be getting an U/S to check for viability.It took her SO long to find my uterus! She said it's majorly tipped. She was finally was able to locate it, and lo and behold there was baby! She said the heart just started beating, but I got to see it! I measured exactly 6 weeks 2 days!The bad...I have to start on insulin now. She said more than likely I'll always be on it, and I am officially diabetic. That was kind of a shock. I'm only on a very low dose right now, but she said she'll increase it every 2 days until I get to my target level. She said she wants my fasting to be below 100 and my after meal to be under 120.I LOVED, LOVED, LOVED this doc. She didn't rush and answered all my questions and even gave me her personal cell phone number and told me she EXPECTED me to call her this weekend to let her know what was going on.Anyway, what a relief. Of course I'm still worried, but all in all a great appointment.
