Hey ladies, looking for the best baby wearing recommendations. Im currently 30W5D and weighing in at about 250.

Hubby and i decided to just get a revolve 4-in-1 car seat instead of an infant seat, cause money and it just makes more sense to me than buying to seats within a year. So that means we'll have to do baby transfers from car seat to us/stroller when its cold and wintery (We live in Illinois). What wraps/baby wearing have you like the most, what's comfy for us with a larger circumference?

Thanks 🫶

I got diagnosed with GD 4 weeks ago, started insulin 3 and keep getting upped because my numbers still arent great. My OB thankfully got me in with an endocrinologist, who kinda changed my diagnosis from Gestational Diabete to pregnancy with Diabetes (my A1C was 5.5 before baby), which to OB wasnt prediabtic but is to endo.

So right now Im on 12-14 units of short acting with each meal, and 26 units at night.

My numbers are getting better, but they are still all over the place (obviously what I eat does effect it). Im trying to stick within the 180 grams of carbs a day, but there will be days I go slightly over and my fasting numbers are great, other days Im below and my numbers are elevated. My fasting number are thankfully no longer above 120 anymore, but when its like 105, this sub makes me feel guilty like im doing something wrong and I truly feel lost.

Also food that shouldn't spike my glucose IE Berries sky rocket me. But the same amount of carbs in popcorn and im fine. I dont get it!!!

Last night with friends I ate a few hand fulls of chips on top of other things and my BS was beautiful this am (77)

I have a serving of cottage cheese with a serving of strawberries and my fasting glucose is in the 100s. I just feel like I cant win. Ill be 30 weeks tomorrow, so I know the end is insight. But shit is this hard.

Thank god for living in a Post-keto/Atkins world so I can get my sweet fixes in the form of protein whatever (bars, brownies, pop tarts etc.)

Got diagnosed last week with GD (I wasnt too surprised my diet was shit), had a telehealth appointment today where they finally prescribed insulin, but wasnt able to pick it up because I had to go into work. I am a flight attendant, Ive been at the airport since 1600, its currently almost 2300, its a shit show thanks to the weather, and Im still waiting for my the plane im working to fly St. Louise to Chicago, to then work a 3 hr flight from Chicago to Phoenix. And all I want is junk food/carbs 😭😭😭😭😭

​

I have yogurt, eggs and string cheese to eat, but its not what I am craving. Ill be 28 weeks Mondays, I know it will all be worth it. But damn does this SUCK.
