So today I had to take my glucose test (checking for gestational diabetes, just a standard test given at this stage of pregnancy). I had to avoid eating any sugars this morning, then drink a"tasty" beverage consisting almost entirely of sugar one hour before my doctor’s appointment. I don’t know what it worked out to, but I'm guessing the equivalent of 5 candy bars. Anyhow, after drinking this I felt a bit of a giddy, caffeine-like high and could feel my heart racing and little Deaver kicking away in my stomach. After our appointment, I was starving, but felt like I wouldn’t want to eat anything sugary for at least a week.…2 oatmeal cookies, 5 fig newtons and 5 dove chocolates later…I’m wondering what happened?! I'm feeling a little guilty. Hopefully I can sleep tonight and manage to break the cycle tomorrow!
ooh fun. I had to go to the lab and guzzle mine in front of other people in the waiting room- the gal behind the desk had the nerve to ask me if I was done yet after a couple of minutes- Um, lady? I am drinking pure suryp here, give me a minute!!
