Finger Pricking Good!

OK, so I had my appt. on Wednesday, and I failed my glucose test, meaning I had to go back for a 3 hour glucose tolerance test today...  This means I also had to fast, so nothing other than water after midnight last night (which is hard enough since I wake up starving).  The goal is to pass 3 of the 4 tests, so 2 finger pricks, so far so good...  One more and I get to leave...  Failed it...  One more shot (this is now the 4th prick)...  I passed.  So good news is no gestational diabetes!!!  My lunch was SO good, especially since it was almost noon when I finally got to eat something!  Lately, I am hungry ALL the time!  =)

The Baby is doing great!  She has a strong heartbeat, and is growing nicely.  She is still moving around lots and giving me heartburn daily.  Sometimes when Kevin gently pushes on my stomach, she pushes back, which is pretty cool.  My next appt. is not for a month, but Kevin and I are going to get a 2D Sonogram done next Friday, so hopefully I will have some really detailed pictures of her!  The doctor's want to make sure she does not have a cleft, which we are confident she does not, but want to be prepared in case.  I am greatful for the extra pics!  Especially since the pics will be of her adorable face!  =)
