FAILED!

I failed my 1 hour glucose tolerance test. To pass you need to be at 140 and under.....mine was 152....so not too awfully high.....but high enough where I am going to have to take the 3 hour glucose test, which in my opinion is pure torture! The last time I had to take that test I felt so horrible......fasting........drinking that awful 100 gm of liquid orange sugar..... and then getting your blood drawn 5 times in 3 hours is not my idea of a fine time....and what else am I supposed to do for 3 hours at the doctors office! I just hope I pass.....I do not want to be a gestational diabetic! Although today I felt like a diabetic. All at once I was sweaty, shaky, and hungry! I had to get some food in me fast or I was going to pass out. Yeah, it was that bad. I was hypoglycemic! For breakfast I had pancakes......no protein.....it is Friday and like a (good) catholic should.....I didn't eat meat....well, I think that is what did it to me! During my hypoglycemic moment, all that went out the window and I had some left over chicken curry and rice from this new Indian place we tried. That hit the spot!

My 27 week appointment went well. I gained another 4 pounds this month.....(sigh) but other than that everything has been going well. My heartburn has progressively worsened.....but the pepcid helps. I am at the point where I go to the doctor every 2 weeks now. I cant believe that I will be in my third trimester next week. This pregnancy is going by fast!
