Hey Hannah -
Thank God the test turned out good!! I was thinking about you today & so glad that you posted your results. And congrats on starting your 3rd trimester!!!!!!!! YEAH!!! Now you can relax and enjoy your holidays! - jen (20w6d)
great! you might just want to be a little conservative with sweets you think?
I've been thinking about you. It seems I haven't seen much of you since your glucose scare. You are such a smart lady, I'm sure I'm not telling you anything you don't already know. But try to increase your proteins and complex carbs and decrease any simple carbs. Simple carbs turn into sugar in your blood just like actual sugar does. I say this while I'm unwrapping a starburst and chowing down. lol.
Again, I'm sure you already know this and are eating well. Glad to hear you passed! Enjoy your 3rd trimester.
Hannah,
That is great news. I'm so glad you PASSED the test LOL....I'm a teacher and passing is passing in my book LOL
Welcpme to the 3rd trimester....sit back and enjoy it goes really quick ...until the very end

Thanks everyone. I went back and read what I wrote and realized I made a couple of errors. Hopefully you were able to sort it out and make sense of it. The bottome line I think came through which is I PASSED Ya-Wooooooo..
That is right sheila.. passing is passing!!! :)
Lisa, enjoy that starburst while you can and thanks for the good advice.
I've been really busy at work and in the evenings at home, so I haven't been on line very much. I hope everyone is doing well. I miss you all!!
Great news on you passing. now u can enjoy a stress free holiday:)

I am so glad your test went well. I am such a whiny butt, I got a terrible headache, and am just now feeling better. I won't get my results until the 27th when I go back to the dr (unless he calls me with them).
It is better to be cautious with the numbers you have, they sound borderline. I would just heed what your doctor told you about diet, and exercise regularly and I think you will be fine. I am so happy that you are in the third trimester, wow, time flies. Congrats!!

Oh, I totally agree with you on the borderline results. I've already implemented my new diet and am determined to stick as closely to it as possible. Of course I will have some pie at Christmas tho :)
Wouldn't you know it tho. A friend of mine is throwing a death by chocolate party this friday night. Can't eat or drink?? What sucky party that is going to be for me!!!
I know I can't totally cut sugar and other simple carbs out of my diet, but I have been going way overboard and that is coming to an end. I'm lucky because I really do know what a good diet is, I just haven't been following it. And I really do love vegetables and whole gain foods. I'm not a big protein eater tho. I'm naturally a carb addict and on top of that, I've been eating way more sweets than I did before I got pg. But no more!!
Good luck with your test also. Let us know as soon as you know more.
Hannah
"Death by chocolate party" ooh you are killin me I'm not even a big choc fan but it sounds so yummy
I am so glad! Whew! Oh well, I guess I'll do the right thing and have a couple of cocktails for you and eat some chocolate, lol.
Thanks Tina!! LOL, i knew I could count on you!!

Cpatow laughed: I also love whole GAIN foods. That's my problem!! :0)
You always said, "If I knew it was going to be my last drink, I'd have made it stronger". That has become my mantra, lol.
I have been a sweet monger too I don't know this last month it is all I crave and with xmas wow it is like they are all around haha
Congrats on passing your glucose test Hannah! Sorry you had to go through the 3 hours one. I'll have mine in 3 weeks. Third trimester! Wonderful! Enjoy your holidays!
