I think this is the worst cartoon ever, so I had to use it!Last week I took my gestational diabetes test. I knew what to expect, but this time I felt really sick when they took blood. It was a rough test. I left after an hour and wasn't really too worried about it since I never had a problem the first 2 pregnancies-and I got the call today that I FAILED IT!
So now I will find out tomorrow when the 3 hour test will be-probably next Monday or Tuesday.
It's just no good all the way around. I have to fast the night before, be there first thing in the morning and they draw blood right away. Then you drink the glucose, wait an hour, take blood. They end up taking blood every 3 hours for a total of 4 times. She warned me if I get sick during the test I will have to come back and do the whole thing over.
I guess I will take it and go from there-but I just want to get this thing over with and cross my fingers that the results come back normal!

Oh that stinks! My niece has full blown gestational diabetes and she's having such a hard time with it. I hope it all works out.
