Back from 3 hr glucose and an ultrasound ....questions??

I am back from my early glucose 3 hr test- fasted for 12 hours ... STARVING NOW.

Hoping all is well- I was tired after drinking it- but could be cause I was up at 5 am

ALSO_____

I had an ultrasound today- and baby is 21/2 pounds- I am only 26 weeks- is this HUGE????

ALSO I saw the tech type that my placenta is GRADE 1- which I googled and looks like the best it can be --right?

and ADNEXA - tech put in SUBOPTIMAL- which was the lowest of 3 choices- what does that mean- my ovaries???

Thank you

I should hear tomorrow on the GD

just wanted everyone to know that the office called and everything was in the normal range.

I told nurse I had eaten and had the sugar stuff before hand- and she said suppose to fast- which was not told. Suggested it be put on the form- then everyone on same page.

I WAS worried about it- as yesterday I flet ICKY afterward....

Thanks for thinking of me and my baby ...  and the help ... :)

Here's a definition from the Princeton website:

"accessory or adjoining anatomical parts or appendages to an organ (especially of the embryo); 'Fallopian tubes and ovaries are adnexa of the uterus' "

It's hard to tell from this definition whether they were talking about your adnexa or the embryo's adnexa.  You could ask the doc at your next appointment.

I remember being so hungry after my 1-hour that I went straight to the local greasy spoon and ordered steak & eggs even though it was 2 in the afternoon.  :)

I think 2 1/2 lbs. at 26 weeks is great. My neice was born at 26 weeks and she weighed 2lbs. 2oz. I have no idea what adnexa is. Good luck on your sugar test!
