No insulin for me!!!

Last week, during my regular Dr.'s appt, my fasting blood sugar was over what the Dr. wanted. They want to keep it below 100, mine was 106. The previous time it was 103. So, he tells me to come back today to have my blood sugar checked again. If it was still above 100, I'd have to get insulin at night! Yikes right?
At first, I kind of stressed about it. But then I figured that I am ALMOST at the end of the pregnancy. I figure I have about 2-3 weeks left, so it really would not be so bad. DH, who is an RN, can administer it to me should I need it.
Yesterday, DH was ribbing me about it. I just rolled my eyes and said that it's out of my hands. I do what I can with my diet and stuff but it's really hard to stick to it, given that it was the holidays. But harder because taking care of the 3 kids really take a toll, y'know? More often than not, it's just easier to eat what's easy to cook or go grab something to eat at a fastfood because I'm just too tired to do anything else. And don't get me started on the exercising. Where, oh where will I fit that in? By the time DH is home, it's dark out and too cold to go walking. And I really don't feel like going to the gym just to get some walking in the treadmill or something. I'd rather just lay down. So I do what I can... I walk up and down the stairs, hoping that it would count for some exercise even if it isn't consistent.
Anyhoo, I've gotten a little long-winded here... went to the Dr.'s this morning... and my blood sugar was 97!!!! Woohoo! So no insulin for me. Whew! Thank you GOD!
