Mama Update

I didn't study quite hard enough last week and failed my Glucose Tolerance Test. My blood sugar was "slightly elevated", so I go back this Wednesday for an all-morning marathon of drinking nasty drinks and getting my blood drawn a few times. Thrillsville. I am trying to look on the bright side of a gestational diabetes diagnosis.
  • Having to watch my diet and exercise can't be all bad. Currently, I do watch what I eat-I watch the food go in and go in and go in some more!
  • As for exercise, I regularly tote around a 28# toddler, but I suppose it wouldn't kill me to actually get on the ellipse (currently staring me in the back as I sit at the computer!).
  • A C-Section sounds better and better the closer I get to my due date. I would love to try having stitches in a less "vulnerable" spot this time around.
  • Seeing Small Fry in more ultrasounds would help pass the time till delivery (88 days, 4 hours, 39 minutes and 15 sec)

Oh well, there isn't much I can do about things now. I will keep my fingers crossed for good news this week and keep everyone posted as soon as I know. In the meantime, I may just have some ice cream tonight-it's all good till they tell me different!
