I took my first injection of insulin at midnight.  It didn't hurt! In fact, I didn't even feel it. It was like watching the needle going into someone else's skin. Right now, my sugars are running high because of the change over from the pills.  I feel wonky and tired, still proud of my achievement though! I can't wait until my sugar levels work their way down to a healthy point.

This insulin thing is a milestone for me, not in so much that I got over my needle fear, but in that I've made a positive step towards motherhood. I feel like I've made a deeper commitment to Mike and a deeper commitment to me.
