i had to take my glucose tolerance test at my last ob visit. i was dreading this day. really dreading it. for the test, you're given a bottle of orange flavored (i've heard that fruit punch is now available, but i'm sure it's just as nasty) sugar water and have to guzzle it down within 3-5 minutes. it tastes so disgusting. seriously. an hour later, blood is drawn to test how quickly the glucose empties from your blood, determining if you have gestational diabetes or not.
i haven't heard anything about the results, so i'm assuming i'm ok.
i've gained 4 more pounds since my last ob visit, taking my total weight gain to a whopping 20 lbs. 20 pounds at 26 weeks. it took me 3o weeks to gain that much with davis. i'm blaming it on the fact that i'm a stay-at-home mom now and i seriously eat something EVERY TIME i walk into or near the kitchen. i just freakin' graze all day, much like a cow.

ugh, that test was THE worst! I had orange the 1st time and fruit punch the 2nd and they are equally disgusting.
