In need of prayer
Last week the doctor called to inform me that I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes. Knowing that my grandpa and dad both have diabetes I was not surprised but knew I would have to be very careful.

Here are a few things that I now have to do :
- Have no sugar at all
- eat six small meals a day with very small amounts of carbohydrates
- check my glucose level four times a day
- go to the doctor more frequently
- eat as much protein as I can handle
- if I can not control my glucose levels I will have to take a glucose reducing pill one time a day
- be careful that the diabetes does not lead to another bout of preclampsia which it very well could.
- exercise an hour a day --who with toddlers has enough energy or time for that ? Still working that one out.
Also, please pray for wisdom as I plan things out and wisdom for my doctor in knowing what to do.
