On my last doctor visit I had the Gestational Diabetes test, just the one where you can have breakfast and drink the nasty drink 1/2 hour before your apt. And..........I failed they like your blood sugar to be below 130 and I was a whoppin 153. I was a bit nervous that I did actually have it so for the next week I exercised everyday and watched a little better of what I ate. All I had heard about it is you have large babies and retain a lot of water. I do want a big baby well lets say under 9 pounds but I don't especially want to be big I am content with size at this point. So then the next week I went and did the 12 hour fast then go in and drink the nasty drink again and have them take my blood every 3 hours (that was one long day sitting at the hospital for that long). Today I called my doctor to see if everything was normal and............ I PASSED yeah I don't have Gestational Diabetes. I can't complain one bit about this pregnancy it has been so very easy, I guess December is the right time to have a baby. :)

I'm glad you passed! Hopefully you had a good book to read in between them taking your blood, huh?!
