So here is a little update since my "Live-a-Betes" blog. I took the 3 hour glucose test. I was feeling very confident because I fasted appropriately, and I had to take it with my second son and passed with flying colors.
This time around I wasn't so lucky. It was coming close to the end of the day (I finished the test around 1pm) and I got the call around 4. UGH.
My Dr. said the after the 2nd and 3rd hours my numbers were too high. Yes, that means Gestational Diabetes.
She then let me know that I must see the diabetes doctors ASAP. Sigh.
I then get a call early EARLY the next morning saying there is a class at 1030am that same day OR I have to wait until the 21st to attend.
So now I wait.
Meanwhile I have been trying to get this whole diet thing under control. Needless to say, it has been HARD!! I have to eat so often and have a certain amount of carbs and protein. UGH. That is hard for this chick who could only keep carbs down at one point!
I will be researching hard and doing my best until I can get in on the 21st. I will GLADLY take any advice anyone can give me.
Until next time!!
