My crazy 3 hr. Sugar test



Last 07/07..my doctor called me and told me that I have to do the 3 hr. sugar test (coz I failed the first one-a 1 hr sugar test that I took last 7/3) to see if I have gestational diabetes. So I did it the next day . I had to do it while fasting and I stayed in the clinic for 3 hrs. after drinking a very sweet orange beverage..and where they took samples of my blood...like 4x(every hour)..it was crazy. I was hoping and praying that I pass this one and that the results will be negative. I just didn't want to harm the baby in any way. The next morning...my doctor gave me a call and told me the news I have been waiting for yet so nervous to hear about. Luckily..he told me that the results came out negative and that baby and I were fine. What a relief!! I'm so grateful!!! I guess this means more sweets for me....maybe not. I still have 3 months to go..baby and I better be in good health. :)
