The sliding scale is for the steroids the full one will be for c-section
I'm very ready, where do they actually put the injections?Maryamy.
I can not believe it's only 11 days away I bet your so ready to meet baby now , won't be long .
I'm not to sure to your question , I had an emergency section and only got put on sliding scale not that long before I went down to theatre which they then took it off for the section anyway so I didn't really understand that bit . Maybe as I had had my morning background already who knows but anyway once that was in I wasn't allowed to move about but baby was being monitored so I'm not sure if that's why . Definitely agree with azure to ask your diabetes team .
I was told by one of the nurses when I was about to have the steroid injections , before they are about to do it wiggle your toes and don't stop Untill the injection is done , they aren't the nicest of injections , but the wiggling takes your mind off of that as your concentrating on wiggling them toes , best of luck lets us know how you get on with your steroid injections .

I can see what you mean first one was bloody painful xI had both of mine in my thighs , and I'm pretty sure a lot of people have them there , for some reason the women across from me had hers in her arms , whether there was a reason she couldn't have them in her thighs I'm unsure .
But mine went into my thighs x

I thought lantus was bad enough!Lol. They are a real nasty injections ain't they , but worth having them for baby but yes ouch lol
How far along will you be when your section has been booked for ? x
I thought lantus was bad enough!
I'll be 37+5 weeks x
Yeah he's estimated to be 10lb at birth I'm surprised they're keeping him in that longBrings a whole different meaning to the word painful injection , just think lantus will never bother you again now after that one haha
That's a really good time to get too , what day is your actual section 24th ? x
