The title to this post may be a little strong. I’m referring to all the women who have agonized about the sweet drink all we pregnant ladies must drink. Totally wasn’t as bad as everyone (a loose term) made it out to be. From everything I heard, I thought they’d be bringing in a jug that would take me many minutes to drink and a lot of self-bribery. Too bad too, there are a couple things that I’d like to give to myself. I also thought it would be saturated to the max with sugar and would be the consistency of syrup. Wrong. I had a choice of flavours, orange or lemon-lime and I decided to go with the classic orange. I figure that if some ginger ale was added to that baby it would make a pretty zippy punch! So the point is, the test wasn’t bad at all. I think Holly liked it. It was totally fine and nothing for anyone to dread. Now we just have to hope the test comes back negative for diabetes!
In terms of visiting the doctor, I really like my doctor and am hoping to have the baby on a Wednesday so my doctor can deliver her. I’m not quite measuring 24 weeks but I don’t think it’s anything to be concerned about. And I now weigh the same amount I did when Conor and I were wed. We’re getting really close to the end too! I have another appointment in 4 weeks and then after that I’ll go in every 2 weeks. Excitement and nervousness are equally setting in.
