Since this blog is supposed to be about my adventures in pregnancy, I thought I would give you an update! As of Sunday, November 31st, I am 28 weeks along. I can't believe I am already that far, it is amazing how fast it has gone, and insanely terrifying!! Although I am still a little in denial, I think I am definitely officially "showing", but, thanks to the amazing invention of rubberbands, I can still wear one pair of pre-preggo jeans! He (sorry no names yet!) is rather rambunctious, making me think I have a true mini-Andy on my hands...no chuckling Nancy & Joan!
Yesterday (Thursday) I had another prenatal appointment, and it just happened to be the one where I had to drink the glucose stuff (it tasted like a combo between flat Sprite and a really sugary snow cone...gross!) to find out if I had gestational diabetes. And, an hour and one finger prick later, I didn't pass the test!! So, this morning at 7:30am, Andy (my moral support) and I (and one hungry stomach) drove over to the hospital and made ourselves at home for 1 more yummy glucose drink and a series of 4 blood draws over 3 hours to find out if I really had gestational diabetes. Luckily, we didn't have to stay at the hospital in between blood draws, so we drove up to my office to check in, went and saw Andy's sister Kelly for a little while, and poked around Silverton to kill time. And, I am happy to report that my test results were normal, and I am diabetes free! Yahoo!! What a HUGE relief!!
Tonight and tomorrow we have our child birth classes...
don't worry, I promise to fill you in on all the scary details!
Have a great weekend!
