Wham-O!

Well, apparently I got too cocky with this whole “great pregnancy” thing. I failed my first glucose test on Monday and went through the three hour test this morning, only to find out I have gestational diabetes. Honestly, I’m ok with it and I’ll do whatever I have to do, but the woman that called me to tell me was incredibly condescending and really upset me. She basically made it out to be like I was a lazy slob who sat around and ate sugar all day. She gave me crap about not going to a diabetes class TOMORROW, and acted as if I wasn’t taking this seriously. I wish I had caught her name because I would mention it to the office the next time I was there. Honestly, I love my doctor’s office and have had nothing but good experiences until this woman called me.

I now have to check my blood sugar level 4 times a day and see the doctor every week until the end of my pregnancy. I know in the grand scheme of things this is very small, but it is still pretty upsetting.

Sorry for the not fun update this close to the holidays!
