My Sugar is OK

At today's appointment, the doctor gave me the results to the three hour glucose test I took on Thursday. He said all four readings were in the 80's. That is well within the normal range. In fact, those are really good readings. I think I was more worried about my sugar being high than I realized because I've been out of commission since I took the test, until today. Then it could have been a combination of different factors such as the heat or allergies -- I don't know! I think I'm hiding my worry from myself! I'm closet-worrying! I don't want anything to go wrong with this baby. I'm just happy that I have a husband and a daughter who make sure that I take it easy and try to help me out as much as they can - which is often! Just a side note - I noticed I am carrying this baby differently from the first baby. Ainsley was positioned lower. With this baby, I look like I'm carrying a basketball around. It looks the same as when you see a pregnant person on TV and you think, "That looks so fake". I guess I won't be thinking that looks so fake anymore! I have a shelf. I didn't have a shelf the first time. I think she's trying to get into the correct position because my belly-button was practically facing to the left yesterday. She's a mover! She seems to move a lot more than Ainsley did. Ainsley's my little "rule follower", this one may be my little feisty one. We'll see - only 75 more days until we hit the due date!

Routine tests

Last week I was sent in for some routine blood work and glucose test. Turns out my sugar was borderline high. The level was 14o. If your level is 140 or above you have to have the 3-hour glucose test. This is where you drink the same yucky orange or fruit punch stuff, and have your blood drawn every hour - four times. Monday I have an appointment with Malak. We'll see the results then. In the meantime, I'm looking into taking Ainsley to a "sibling" class. I hope they teach them in the area.
