okay not so good news!

That was terrible! The glucose test, I mean. It didnt help that I barely got any sleep the night before because of nausea and heartburn. On the way to the doctor's office I felt like I was about to be sick any second. I decided to distract myself and read my People magazine and whoo did that make things worse. I got such a bad case of carsickness! I never did throw up but I was sure concerned. lol. well we get to the doctor's office and it was time to drink that syrup garbage. I was so not in the mood. She pulls the bottle out of the fridge and I'm thinking, "there is no way I can ever drink all of that". Luckily I only had to drink half. I got the option of fruit punch or orange and decided to try fruit punch. YUCK! It burned my throat going down and with every swallow I felt like I was on an episode of Fear Factor struggling to keep it down. My nurse was such a sweetheart (she always is) and just kept asking me how I was feeling and laughing with me about how God awful it was. So I got it all down (and the good news.. it stayed there amazingly) and Jesse and I waited for our hour to be up. When it was I was surprised to find out they can now poke you in your finger and get the results then and there. Anemia check came back good.. surprise.. I was anemic with the girls. Then she made this face and Jesse and I knew something wasnt good. I failed the glucose test! nooooo! I so wasn't expecting that.. passed with flying colors with both of the girls. I told Jesse this one had better be his boy! So now I get to go back next Wednesday morning and drink a WHOLE bottle (dear Lord is that even possible? I could barely handle the half) of that mess and then get blood drawn every hour for three hours. I pray I pass. If not it means I have gestational diabetes and she said they would transfer me to the hospital for more testing and I guess that puts my pregnancy in the high risk category. Gah!

Other than that the appointment went good. I'm up to 124 lbs which means I've gained about 14 pounds in 2 1/2 months which I guess is okay. Especially considering the morning sickness made me lose like 7 or 8. I did find out they are going to do another ultrasound to get more of an idea when this little one is going to make an appearance. so that made me happy! Ultrasounds are always fun! Jesse said this was our last chance to find out.. and I said no way, we've waited this long, we can finish without knowing! lol.

Mom and dad came over and stayed with the girls yesterday which was a major help since we didn't have to drag them to the doctor appointment and bore them to tears. They made cupcakes together and played playstation, watched shrek 3, and all that so the girls had a great day. Mom helped me clean the top floor and that's done. Now we just have to clean and pack this floor and the basement and we can work on being out of here! Hopefully by the end of next week...
