I passed my 3 hr glucose test on Monday!!! I am so excited that I don't have to be on a diet while pregnant, even though I should probably still really think about my food choices! I tend to blame it on Colton...whatever he wants to eat is what I feed him. Monday when I did my test all the nurses laughed when I came in because they knew how much I was dreading it. The only flavor they had was ORANGE again and I can't even begin to describe how yucky it is. When you have to do the 3 hr test, they take your blood before you start and then every hour on the hour afterwards. The Lab Corp lady, who I got so acquainted with was Rhonda went to draw my blood and she said that she could tell that I hadn't eaten or drank anything because my vein wasn't popping!?! I thought okay, so she tried to poke me anyway and then she wiggled around a good bit and finally she said..."You're not giving any blood this morning." I thought great, now what? She finally got the other arm to work and so the process begins. After all that with my arm, I had to drink the YUCK drink and every swallow was horrible! Once I got it all down she sent me back out to the waiting room to wait for the next 3 hours. You would be amazed at how some people look, act and talk at a doctors office. I got to see all kinds of people! I felt pretty good at first and was excited about it and since I had to do the same test with Hayden and Gracie I was hoping I wouldn't feel sick the whole time. However, after about 30 minutes the nausea started and I got extremely sleeping but there was no napping because there were 3 newborn babies in the office and they weren't happy campers but they were all very cute! Finally after the first hour past I started to feel much better! I went to pick up Hayden and Kierstin from school and then we went to Chick-fil-a to eat and play. The girls had fun and I guess I should say that I did too because my meal consisted of a #1 combo, side salad and a piece of cheesecake and yes I ate almost all of it! I also felt a 100% better after eating! I am so glad that my test had good results and I only have 12 more weeks and my baby boy will be here!!!
Tuesdays are busy days for us. Hayden has Ballet and TBall! We have ballet at 5pm and TBall at 6pm. I take all of her stuff in the ballet place and we change really fast to go play ball. We are always a little late on Tuesdays but she gets right out there and starts playing. One of the parents last night said that he really liked that she did ballet and TBall, that it was kind of like a sweet and spicy. I thought it was pretty cute because she can be very girly and she can get dirty and play hard like the boys. I really think she likes TBall, we haven't even had to encourage her to participate. She loves to hit because she always hits the best, of course. The part that amazes me is that when she is out in the field, she always makes sure to try to get the ball. She did so good at practice last night, that I even had some of the parents tell me what a great player she is and that she hits really well! That always makes a me a proud Mommy!!! She was also so good in the field that the coach finally moved her more to the outfield position so that the other kids could get the ball! Now by saying this, every practice is not always the same but last night she was really into it! As I have said a million other times, she always makes us a proud Mommy and Daddy! Her first game is Saturday at 3pm and I can't wait to see her all dressed in her uniform and playing.
