I had to drink the orange-flavored drink yesterday. It was time for my gestational diabetes test.
And I'm happy to report, I passed. I needed a number less than 140 and mine came back at 99! Woohoo!
I was thrilled by that news since there was a good possibility my results could have gone the other way. I have diabetes in my family and of course I'm overweight. I didn't have a lot going for me other than the fact that I already take a medication that controls my blood sugars due to my insulin resistance. That definitely helped. Frankly, I don't care how my number got to 99, just as long as it did.
It's just one less thing to worry about for the remainder of my pregnancy.
100 days today and counting until July 10 (if I make it that far)!
