[QUOTE="JessP, post: 854070, member: 50279"] HI Steph, a sliding scale is where you are on in intravenous infusion with insulin and dextrose going in at different concentrations depending on what your blood sugar is so they can control your sugars. When you're in labour they want you to keep your sugars between 4-7 as a BM of higher than 7 increases the risk of the baby having hypos after they are born and obviously a hypo isn't ideal for you. Good luck over the next few months and deciding what to do with the wedding! x [/QUOTE]
