FAIL!

"I love getting closer to my due date, but as it gets closer there always seems to be yet another test that needs to be taken. Around 28 weeks your OBGYN will mention that it’s time for the infamous glucose test that tests for gestational diabetes. You know that yucky sugary drink every pregnant woman dreads drinking? Yes, we're talking about that! If I didn't have the urge to hurl before, I do now."

Yesterday I got a call from Dr. DL's office.  I failed my gestational diabetes one hour test!! Which meant I had to skip class today to go for the 2 hour fasting test today.  I fasted for 12 hours and went this morning.  Man it made baby move a lot but it made me feel nauseous afterwards.  I am kind of on the fence about this one and I am hoping that they don't find my sugar levels too high.  My body all day has just felt sluggish and sick...  I know how bad sugar is for you and it made me re-evaluate what I have been eating this pregnancy and how much I eat.

Since coming home from the test I have been trying to drink water to flush the yucky feeling that I have had but yet it still remains.   I think Wednesday is going to be a day of using water all day to flush my system.  I also have decided to limit my natural sugars too... and I am going to try to cut sugars completely. Man I am so grossed out by my gestational diabetes test... man I think I would have rather just stuck to a strict diet since the beginning of my pregnancy because this gross feeling just doesn't seem to go away.
