Glucose results

I passed the three hour glucose test. My numbers were no where close to having gestational diabetes. That is a relief. I try to eat pretty Healy, but I have a big sweet tooth.

Let me just say that the three hour test is no joke. I had to fast from 9:00 pm the night before. We finished dinner at 7 and at 9 I wasn't hungry....so then I was only allowed to have sips of water until after my test. I needed up not eating until close to 12:15. I was beyond hungry.

1 hour glucose

So, I FINALLY got the results of my glucose test from last Friday.  I failed by 2 measly points.  So, tomorrow I get to go have the 3 hour test done. 

Here is the schedule:
   8:00-8:15 - blood draw/drink glucola
                      one hour later blood draw
                      one hour later blood draw
                      one hour later blood draw.
GO GET FOOD!!
