- I failed my three hour glucose test BOOOOOO! On Monday I'll be going to an education class, but until then I'll be counting carbs and watching what I eat. I can do anything for four weeks, right? Too bad the last bunch of brownies I made were nothing but warm goop (egg replacer did NOT work correctly.)
- The good news about having gestational diabetes is that I get to have another ultrasound to check on the size of the baby ( but also see my little guy!)
- So far it seems that the hardest thing about the meals is that all recommend eggs or peanut butter as a source of protein. I can substitute sunbutter for peanut butter, but I really hate eating scrambled eggs in front of Ava. I'm paranoid that I'm going to drop some on the floor and she'll pick it up to eat it (not my child!) I guess I'm going to have to get over that.
- Carter is now officially the proud owner of a pair of light up lightning mcqueen tennis shoes. Yes, I have failed as a mother. I will now go hang my head in shame. But I have to say, he is so proud and happy with these shoes it almost makes up for the humiliation. Almost.

I'm sorry to hear about the GD! I've come reeeally close a couple of times, but always ended up squeaking through the 3 hr test. I've heard that first bite of something sugary after having the baby is beyond wonderful. :) Good luck!
ReplyDeleteI have a whole closet full of light-up tennis shoes, if you'd like me to send them on. They are pink, though!
Sorry to hear that,I guess we should thank Ava for turning her mom in, telling the doctor that there was candy in mommy's tummy!
ReplyDeleteGood luck!
Thanks Becca, but I'll pass on the pink light up shoes. I'm sure you'll get plenty of use out of them!
