So I have to share my excitement! Yesterday I went in for another doctors appt. Nothing new except I was also doing the 1 hour glucose test. Last time when I was pregnant I was over the limit and had to take the 3 hour test. Which was a real pain. Plus I almost didn't pass that one. So I decided that this time around was going to be different. I had already lost a ton of weight before getting pregnant and built up some muscle. Two weeks ago at my last appointment the doctor told me that I would need to take the test again. (The first time, at 12 weeks, everything was fine). For the past 2 weeks I have really been watching what I ate and cut out even more sugary stuff then I already had. Anyway, I got my test results this morning and I passed with flying colors. I was a 97. Wooo Hooo! 9 points lower than the first test. Plus to top it off, when I weighed in yesterday I discovered that I had lost the five pounds that I had put on since my last visit. Totally stoked. According to the doctor's scale I have only gained 2 pounds the entire pregnancy, (I know I have gained more before I actually went in for my 1st appt, but we won't go there). Anyway with only 3 months left to go, if I keep it up I can hopefully not gain very much more. Wooo Hoo! OK, thanks for letting me share my excitement. (No 3 hour glucose test this time baby)!!!!
