Baby Update-

I'm 26 weeks preggo today. I went in for my second glucose today. Hopefully it went well. My last glucose test went well, so for this test I only had to do another one hour test. I do have to say this test was a lot different than the first one I had. The first test I drank this nasty lemon lime flavored syrup in less than 5 minutes. Then I sat for an hour and tried my hardest not to throw up and trust me... that was hard!! Then the person who drew my blood had a million viles that she had to fill up. She poked my right arm and after a few viles the blood stopped flowing. The rubber band was still on my upper arm mind you. So then she poked my left arm. Had to re-do one of the viles and again the blood stopped flowing!! Finally, they were able to get all the viles filled up. By this time I'm so pale that I'm practically translucent and I'm very dizzy and not feeling so hot!!

Today's test involved me having one vile of blood drawn. Chug this Fruit Punch syrup drink that really didn't taste all that bad. I'd been fasting for 12 hours and was super thirsty so I didn't really care what I drank as long as I got to drink something!! Seriously, it didn't taste bad at all. I then had to go sit out in the waiting room for an hour and then after my hour was up I had another vile of blood drawn. Practically all the people in the waiting room were pregnant and having their glucose tests done too. During my hour of waiting I had the opportunity to watch the Ellen Show!! I love Ellen. Also, little baby Gavin was on a sugar high and was kicking my guts in!! That was fun! I love feeling those little baby kicks!! He was really going at it today! I've never seen my belly move so much! I think he's off his sugar high and passed out! I haven't felt him move for the last couple hours. Thankfully this time I didn't get sick. I actually had the energy to get all my errands done! Yep... I'd say it was a pretty good day!!
