I had my Glucose test on Friday. They also did a CBC draw and HIV. I got a call from the nurse today, but missed it and got home too late to call back, so I'm assuming it has something to do with one of them.
I'm hoping my iron is just low since that will be soooo much easier to treat, but if it is my sugar test, does anyone know what to expect?
I'm just a little concerned because my food repertoire is so limited and I'm just worried I'm not going to be able to eat some of my staple foods! What kind of dietary changes should I expect?
Thanks!!!View Thread


I'm looking at this as a blessing in disguise!
Anon - thanks for all of your input - I hope you passed your 1 hour!! Good luck!!View Thread

I'm just worried about eating - I"m such a picky eater!
Oh well. . .
Thanks for all of your input. . .View Thread

I didn't feel yucky at the end which worries me a tad. . .I thought I'd feel dizzy/queasy, but felt ok. . .
I'll update when I find out!View Thread


I did fail the 1 hour - cutoff was 139 and mine was 150.
I have the 3 hour tomorrow - woohoo. . .
I'm hoping it comes out fine, but I guess the worst is I'll just have to watch what I eat. . .View Thread

My DD is still RFing at age 2.5. I purposely bought a car seat with a high RF weight limit because I wanted to keep her RFing for as long as possible.
She's a little peanut and hasn't even hit 30lbs yet! I get a lot of comments when people see her seat about how uncomfortable she must be and she looks squished, but I just say it's what my pediatrician and my family is comfortable with at this time. She doesn't mind and doesn't know any better. It's really a personal choice. I don't look down on anyone who decides differently - it really is a personal choice and no one is right or wrong.
This next LO of ours will definitely follow in her sister's footsteps and remain RFing for as long as possible.
Kudos to the AAP!View Thread


I have an irritable uterus, so I get them frequently, but they are non-productive.
Not sure about the spasming. Could it be the baby hitting your cervix? I sometimes feel spasm-like feelings but more towards my butt and it's the baby wiggling around.View Thread
