Gestational Diabetes costing money
20May2009 Filed under: Uncategorized Author: Mamapumpkin
Despite the fact that I’ve just spent RM450 at the Doctors last weekend to do the 3D scans of the baby, I now have to see another Doctor again this weekend because she is concerned that my diabetes is out of control. *sigh* There goes another RM150.
Total spent on gestational diabetes since pregnant: RM2600
Acuvue Diabetic Kit - RM350
Needles and Test Strips from January to April - RM2250
Roche is really making money, huh?
Now that I need to prick my finger even more frequently, it’s going to cost even more!!! ANd let’s hope I don’t need insulin jabs because I’m sure that would cost EVEN more.
*sigh*
This is all punishment for being such a greedy cow all my life.

Who is Mamapumpkin?
Once upon a time, I designed buildings and interiors of corporate offices and on the rare occasion, homes. Now, I clean poop and am student of a patience management course. From the drawing board as a London Architect to the realities of Motherhood, I have certainly learned many lessons in humility. And then others.....
To succeed in the corporate world, first succeed with your kid as the happy boss. Seriously.
This blog is about me, Mamapumpkin. A crazy, demented Mom who cares full time, alone, without any help, for an even crazier preschooler AND a baby with a boob addiction problem. *sniff* Someone, please get me a chair.......
I write anything that comes out of my head, mostly without thinking first, which almost always gets me into trouble (according to my husband, also known as the love of my life.......on a good day).
My pet monkeys drive me towards challenge after challenge, 24/7.
Gotta love it.

I thought the kit and needles are covered by insurance. Is it different back home? I was lucky that my entire preg expenses were covered by insurance. All we did was to pay the co-pay, which is about $10 every doc visit.
