This has been an exciting week so far! We got to see Spencer again on Tuesday. He is perfect and measuring 28w3d! I started my appointment out by getting to drink the flat orange flavored drink for my glucose test. It really didn't taste as bad as everyone says. It gave little Spencer a nice sugar high, so he was pretty active during the ultrasound.
As I was getting ready for our anniversary dinner (2 years!), the nurse called to tell me I didn't pass my glucose test. What!?!? I was pretty bummed. However, I didn't let it ruin our dinner. We had a wonderful time at Cascio's Tavern. They had a special table set up for us, and the food was delicious! I made Kyle help me eat our dessert so I wouldn't feel so bad about eating some of it. How can you pass up a complimentary dessert? And white chocolate creme brulee at that! I had to return to the doctor this morning for a 3 hour glucose test. I was really, really dreading it. There's nothing more I hate than being stuck to draw blood. I knew I was going to be stuck at least 4 times today. Also, the drink was twice as concentrated. Sitting in the doctor's office for 3 hours not being able to eat or drink is pretty miserable. Who makes a pregnant woman wait to eat until 12 pm? I ended up being stuck 5 times. My poor arms look like I have a little drug problem. It was all worth it though.... I passed! Woo hoo! No gestational diabetes for me! Now, where's the cake?
Look at our little angel!
Happy Anniversary, and that's exactly what I thought when I found out I had passed the three hour test- where's the cake?!
