Big Baby Blues: Birth Story #3: The Statesman
http://diabeticbirth.blogspot.com/2012/06/birth-story-3-statesman.html
A blog about Type 1 Diabetes and Mostly Natural Pregnancy and Childbirth. Tips for Pregnant Diabetics. Wednesday, June 20, 2012. Birth Story #3: The Statesman. The Statesman was born on Thursday morning, June 14, at 9:30 am, at 8 pounds, 5.6 ounces, a whopping 22 inches long, and APGAR scores of 8 and 9. Depending on whose due date you like best, he was one day early, right on time, or 4 days late. But just in case, I got up and got dressed. I laid back down again. Blood sugar: 99. I was dozing off when ...

Diabetic Doc: Elf on the (Hospital) Shelf
http://diabeticdoc.blogspot.com/2013/12/elf-on-hospital-shelf.html
Type 1 Diabetic by nature, Pediatric Endocrinologist by choice. Tuesday, December 24, 2013. Elf on the (Hospital) Shelf. My social media updates are full of pictures of elves on shelves - those playful little elf dolls that carefully watch children during the day and fly to Santa at night to inform him of their good and bad deeds. The elves, upon returning to the childrens' homes, often get into a little mischief. Holiday time should be full of innocent joy like this, but it can be a little more bitter t...

Diabetic Doc: October 2013
http://diabeticdoc.blogspot.com/2013_10_01_archive.html
Type 1 Diabetic by nature, Pediatric Endocrinologist by choice. Wednesday, October 30, 2013. I have been on-call this whole month and it has been chock-full of interesting patients, though the majority involved issues with every hormone besides. Insulin. Keeping my head above the proverbial water has been a struggle. Lefty loosey, righty tighty, yes? I was definitely lefty loosey-ing, but without the loosening. It figures my husband was working late on the one night I REALLY needed him, haha. A childhood...

Diabetic Doc: Professionally Insulted
http://diabeticdoc.blogspot.com/2014/04/professionally-insulted.html
Type 1 Diabetic by nature, Pediatric Endocrinologist by choice. Monday, April 14, 2014. There are only few moments in my life that I wish I could go back to in order to defend myself properly, or to shoot that perfect comeback, or to say what I was really thinking. I had one of those moments recently. I reached the psychiatrist, expecting to discuss technicalities of glucose measurements and insulin units, but the conversation went in a direction I was not expecting at all. His words took my breath away&...

Diabetic Doc: Washed Away
http://diabeticdoc.blogspot.com/2013/10/washed-away.html
Type 1 Diabetic by nature, Pediatric Endocrinologist by choice. Saturday, October 5, 2013. A childhood in Florida is amphibious. The summer heat is suffocating, and the only way you feel you can breathe is to keep yourself submerged in the cool water of pools, lakes, and oceans. I am also sure to be extra vigilant once I’m out of the water, again checking my blood sugar and treating any residual high or low blood sugars. But being under water allows me to feel free in a way that I never am when I am abov...

Diabetic Doc: November 2013
http://diabeticdoc.blogspot.com/2013_11_01_archive.html
Type 1 Diabetic by nature, Pediatric Endocrinologist by choice. Tuesday, November 19, 2013. The Secret Life of D's. I carry my diabetes with me throughout the work day, sometimes sharing it with patients and sometimes not. I pick and choose based upon whether or not I feel it will be beneficial. I understand that feeling. I wish you did not have to do it anymore, either. I feel that way sometimes, too, because I also have diabetes," I carefully explained. My mom is the only one here who doesn't! Now it w...

Diabetic Doc: Grave Mistake
http://diabeticdoc.blogspot.com/2013/08/grave-mistake.html
Type 1 Diabetic by nature, Pediatric Endocrinologist by choice. Wednesday, August 28, 2013. An endocrine emergency takes place right next to an endocrinologist, but she cannot do anything about it. Why? I met a lot of different people over the four days that I was there. One was a physician from Europe hoping to train to be an endocrinologist and he hung out with me and a group of friends the whole time. He noticed my insulin pump over dinner one night and we had a long discussion about it, as th...How i...

Diabetic Doc: Until the Cure
http://diabeticdoc.blogspot.com/2013/09/until-cure.html
Type 1 Diabetic by nature, Pediatric Endocrinologist by choice. Saturday, September 28, 2013. Diabetes is Goliath, and researchers often feel like David. How are we ever going to take down such a huge opponent? Where is the cure? I want those researchers to focus on the cure. But I also support work that looks into how we can live well alongside the beast that is diabetes. We don't want another fancy pump! We want a cure! The artificial pancreas is just another money-making device for big pharma! We also...

Big Baby Blues: Week 26: It Does and Does Not Get Easier
http://diabeticbirth.blogspot.com/2016/08/week-26-it-does-and-does-not-get-easier.html
A blog about Type 1 Diabetes and Mostly Natural Pregnancy and Childbirth. Tips for Pregnant Diabetics. Sunday, August 28, 2016. Week 26: It Does and Does Not Get Easier. This week I became overwhelmed by the thought that I would have to do this for another three months. Three months! And some other things that one really needn't worry about ( babies with only one kidney. But on the whole, I would not say that having babies really gets any easier. Why is this? I was one time at a doula training. In a ...
