The dreaded glucose test!

Well, today I went to the md for my glucose test. I have heard good and bad things about it so I didn't really know what to expect. In my opinion, it wasn't that bad. I didn't get to choose what flavor to drink, so it was lovely lemon lime. It just tasted like flat Sprite at first. But by the end of it, I was gagging it down. I still don't know what the results are since they had to send the blood samples to the lab and it is the weekend. So...I get to wait patiently until monday to find out the results. Cruel huh? One piece of advice though for those of you who are having to do this in future, eat only protein before you go in for the test. I am glad the doctor told me that before hand. So, wish me luck because I REALLY don't want to do the 3 hour glucose test! Seriosly, 3 hours! That's a joke! I will let you know what happens as soon as I know=)

Everything else is good though. I am measuring right, Tucker's heartbeat was good and I have been feeling good minus my allergies! It's amazing how quickly you gain weight after about week 24! I was not prepared for that! I thought it would just gradually happen, and I know each person is completely different, but man...for me it just happened all at once! Let's just hope it slows down because I don't think I will be able to stand at 9 months if not! But, I am just glad my little man is healthy and hopefully happy. Let's hope it stays that way=)

  1. Yikes, the glucose test is lame! I wasn't a fan of it, but like you, it didn't make me sick so that's a plus! I'm so glad Tucker is doing so well. Enjoy the weight gain. It's the only time in life people want you to gain weight!
