I’m doing my glucose test this week. Very exciting huh?? I’m not looking forward to it. It hasn’t bothered me in the past, but this pregnancy I get super nauseated anytime I have a lot of sugar, especially if it’s sugar without anything else. So! Looks like I’ll get to spend 3 hours feeling like death. I’m probably setting myself up for for a disappointing Thanksgiving doing this the week before, but OH WELL.
In other news I called to reschedule an OB appointment today and they didn’t have the original appointment in their system. I was reading the time and the date from the little card they’d given me, but NOPE. Nothing there. Soooooo, good thing I didn’t just show up for that? I hope my new one actually got scheduled.
Otherwise: lots of braxton hicks, my knees hurt all the time, getting up from a seated position is an ordeal, and I’m starting to really hate any pants but yoga pants.
(My hair looks terrible because I washed it this morning and then didn’t do anything with it.)
Ugh glucose test
Ugh indeed.
I got so sick with sugar my whole pregnancy with Ryan too. It was so unfair. I love sugar.
It’s downright mean! I love sugar too.
I have another pregnant friend who’s having trouble with sugar this time around, too. She’s about 17 weeks and recently tried one bite of brownie, only to puke 3 hours later. She is NOT EXCITED about the glucose test, not to mention having to get through the holidays without being able to eat sugar. No fun!
The good news about sugar making you sick is you really don’t want it. With gestational diabetes I WANTED it all the time, but I couldn’t have any. It was very sad.
