I failed my glucose test. It doesn't make it any easier that i was basically told i would and that i could not have prevented it. The poor receptionist had to listen to me bawl as she scheduled the fasting test for Wednesday morning (3 hour test after fasting from midnight on). I want to go to bed now. Plus i am even more of a bad mommy because i just realized this means no cake at my baby shower tomorrow. No fair no fair no fair.............
**Called MW back and asked if i'm supposed to monitor my carbs/sugar until Wed, she said to eat as i normally did, that nothing i ate/didn't eat caused me to fail (although she did recommend as always to eat more protein), but how my placenta is processing sugar. That 2/3 of all women who fail the one hour test PASS the three hour test. Plus if i do end up having GD (thx mom and dad), it's GD not just D, so it goes away after the baby is here. I feel better, i really wanted some cake! lol

I think you are too hard on yourself! Ike and you are still both healthy and doing fine right! Then you are a good mommy!
I'm glad you get to eat cake at your shower. And even if you do end up testing positive for GD, there is not really anything you could have done to prevent it. Cherie got onto me about protein too, because I was highly anemic during my pregnancies. Just comes with the territory I guess. :)
You are not a bad mommy...this just happens! You couldn't of done anything different..you are an AWESOME Mommy!!!
