Gestational Diabetes test update...

...got the call from my doctor and unfortunately my levels came back too high and I have to take the 3 hour test on Tuesday. :( What a way to start my birthday week! The doctor also said my iron levels are low so I need to up my iron intake! Guess I will be hitting the dark greens! :) Anyways that is all for now I will update on or around Tuesday with my latest test results, keep your fingers crossed for me!

Gestational Diabetes Test...

So I did my gestational diabetes test today. In which I was/am super nervous about. I had a weird reaction to the test like sweating profusely and for a few hours after was very dizzy and felt weak. NOT A GOOD SIGN!! Or at least I don't think so. My mom, being the very blunt person she is simply said, "I think you failed". Great! The phlebotomist said I should have the results by tomorrow, Monday at the absolute latest. So lets keep our fingers crossed!

6 1/2 months!

Hello Everyone! I am trying to figure out all of this STILL! In the meantime lets update you on what I have been up to! I am 27 weeks along and the baby is doing very well! I can't wait for my next checkup which will bring another ultrasound and gestational diabetes testing (yuck, but good to know). Anyways here are the pictures from the last ultrasound to show that the baby is going to be a beautiful girl! We have decided to go with the name Ellie Lynn!



Our next appointment is June 28th so hopefully we will have more to tell then! Talk to you all very soon!
