Glucose
So I had my glucose screening the other day, which I was totally not worried about since I don't mind the nasty drink and have never had a problem before. Well, the nurse just called and told me that I didn't pass the screening. I have to go back next week for a 3 hour glucose tolerance test. If I pass that then all is good, but if I don't then I have gestational diabetes and will have to deal with that, which should be fun! Especially since after reading about it, the way to control it is through diet and exercise and since I'm not allowed to move exercise could be a problem. I want to get it over with as soon as possible so I guess I'll schedule it for Monday morning. Have an OB appt on Monday afternoon and see the specialist on Weds so it looks like next week will be busy!

With the twins I had an appointment every week and then the last six weeks or so I had one twice a week. I think it helps the time go by fast. Stinks about the glucose test. DOn't you feel like it's one issue after another...I felt that way when I was preggo with Blake. I just wanted to enjoy pregnancy but it was so hard when I would go in and something would often be wrong or we "have to keep an eye on it" I am glad though you have made it this far! Soon it will all be over and you can say to your little boy "we did it, we made it!" Excited for you and your family!
