Glucose Tolerance Test #2

That's right, they made me do it again. I guess I failed the first time getting a 152 or was it a 154. This time they made me do the 3 hour Glucose Tolerance Test. What a bear!!! I stayed up late last night to eat a 4th meal so that I only had the 8 hour fast vs. going to bed normal time last time when I had a 13 hour fast. I got up, got out, went to the lab, had an appointment at 9am but they took me as soon as I got in because they knew I was fasting. They took blood at the fasting rate, made me drink the syrup again and then tested my blood every hour on the hour for 3 hours. Oi Vay! What drama. I was tired, so hungry and so cranky. I mean truly what more can you ask out of a preggers. Isn't sucking me dry enough but that I also have to drink this terrible stuff and hang around for 3 hours!!! I need a nap. Hopefully the results are favorable this time. My mother-in-law, bite her tongue, said if it doesn't work out they can always make you do it again. Uh Uh, no way, no how, no gonna, no! I feel a hormonal temper tantrum coming on. LOL
