Gestational Diabetes Test
So I finally had my test today, and I didn't like it! First I had to fast since last night, which of course meant all night long I had dreams about food and woke up starving! And then I had to go to the lab place, which of course took forever to get called back, while I'm starving. Then they did pre bloodwork and gave me this nasty lemon lime drink that tasted like flat sprite. I was incredibly motivated to drink it fast though, because as soon as I was done drinking my hour of waiting started. Definately drank that the fastest I've ever drank anything! And then Brandon and I got to sit in the waiting room for an entire hour. Brandon had CQ yesterday, which means he works for 24 hours straight, so he gets to have today off. So straight from working 24 hours, he got to come sit in a waiting room with me for a hour and keep me entertained :) Drinking that nasty drink made my stomach feel gross because it was like pure sugar and I don't do much sugar anymore. Finally after my hour was done, they called me back and I got my blood drawn again and then it was time to get home and eat!! They said my doctor would have the results in 2-3 days, so I'm thinking I should know by Monday if I passed or if I have to do the 3 hour test, so fingers crossed! 66 more days until Micah is here!
