What NOT To Eat For Breakfast

This blog stems from a conversation with Eva from last week. We were discussing things we should maybe avoid eating. I for one, prefer all carbohydrates (simple and complex). Eva is a fan of the proteins, but for some reason is craving less of that and more carbs during her pregnancy. This got us started on the glucose test for gestational diabetes in pregnant women. Since I already monitor my blood sugar levels I've not had to take the test; Eva's is coming up soon.

That same evening after our conversation, I received the following article about glycemic indices of foods via mail...


Anyway, I thought it was interesting enough to share (courtesy of Anderson Hospital). Now, having learned what not to eat, and knowing how terrible sugars are for breakfast (even Jodi warned me), one might guess I would know better than to eat ice cream for breakfast!



Did I listen? No. How were my sugars? 170 [egads!] Did I learn my lesson? Well, only time will tell!


Keeping tabs on Baby Yadi? I've written more over at BabyBlog [with new ultrasound pics]
Still not in the gender poll? Better get in there over at the StephySite Poll!

As always, thanks for stopping by to read!

...That's What?

For those of you that have ever had an ultrasound, be if for gall or kidney stones or your everyday baby, you will know how confusing it is to interpret some of the images that they give you. I'm sharing with you now, some newer ultrasound images of Baby Yadi.

The first is of my third ultrasound (July 2, 2010)...you should see [in this order]: Head with attached spine (happy to see them attached); a face (see the eye sockets?); another view of the face.



The next set is from my fourth ultrasound (July 27, 2010) [Why so many ultrasounds? Technically I'm high risk, though it'd be low on the spectrum of high risk].

For fun, I decided to give you the ultrasound images first without explanation and then with notation as to what you should see...

What do you see?	What you should see!
