The results are in

the results are in..............................................one scary thing right after another.  My doctor calledm e this morning and I thought she was just calling to check on me since i had some spotting yesterday.....well thats not the only reason she called.  Apparently i failed my one hour glucose test and now have to go for the 3hr.  She said my levels were pretty high and asked what i eat and drank before i went......i had water right before and thats about it other then lunch a few hours before.  So i am praying that i pass the 3hour, although i have bad feeling that i will fail.  Most of my family is diabetics and i know that i am at a higher risk now that i am heavier......not to mention i have always been border line diabetic anyway.  Well maybe thats why i felt so weird after taking the test.

Yea i was doing some research online about it and apparently most of the time it goes away after birth.....hope thats the case for me if i end up with it.  I also hope i have the kind that doesnt need insuline b/c i can not give myself a needle.  so i am just trying to stay calm and wait to take my test

Hopefully you will be able to control it with diet, instead of insulin.  You'll be fine and remember it goes away after birth.  Try not to stress.
