The dreaded glucose test!




I dont remember much from my first pregnancy but I do remember the glucose test.  It sucked! It was a horrible experience.  I remember drinking something nasty and struggling to keep it down.  Just a flat out horrible experience.  So now its time for me to take my glucose test for Paige and of course I'm dreading it.

So the day finally comes. I wake up and go to the doctor's office and I'm given this drink. Hold up. What is this? This does not look like the gross drink I was forced to drink 11 years ago. This was fruit punch flavored and cold. I took it down without a second thought.  It tasted like Kool Aid.  The nurses were surprised with how fast I drunk it.  And then it was time to give blood. The appointment overall was easy.  My doctor was happy with my weight gain, I heard Paige's heartbeat and I was sent on my merry way. What more could a pregnant woman ask for? :)
