Glucose Test

I took the dreaded glucose test today.  Am I weird that I thought the small bottle of orange liquid tasted ok?  Now we wait for the results.  I hope I don't have to do it again though. A stomach full of sugar water makes the acid reflux worse!

The appointment went well.  I have gained a total of 14 lbs and Baby Gorka is already facing head down.  Brad seems to want to think Baby Gorka is just that much more smarter and advanced than others.  All because Dr. Middleton said most babies don't head south until the 32nd week (we're 19 weeks on Monday).  So much pressure on this kid already.

So far Baby Gorka seems like a wild child.  He is non-stop in my tummy.  I swear he's doing karate or something in there.  Brad saw one of his hard jabs the other day while I was just sitting there and of course references the movie Prometheus.  Nice visual Brad!

I guess time is ticking down...we get to meet Baby Gorka soon.  All I keep thinking is "how can my belly get any bigger" and "I could sure use a beer or 10 now".

  1. Don't worry if you don't pass the 1st glucose test- Me & my sis both failed it but we didn't have gestational diabetes. I loved that orange drink too!!!!
