Happy Halloween!! I will be dressing up this year as a nurse! ;o) I decided to work this year on the 31st and allow those with kiddies to take their children out during Beggar's Night. I'm not exactly sure how it will work out tomorrow considering Hurricane Sandy has been wrecking havoc and causing such bad weather. It has been cold, windy, and rainy. It's crazy when just the other day it was sunny and 75. Break out your winter coat... I am ready with mine. I was able to get a great clearance deal on an actual maternity coat. It's a little big but I have made a few changes to it and it will work out great. I also have some room to grow, just in case.
Well friends, I have some not so good news to share. Yesterday I received a phone call from my OB-GYN that my glucose test came back positive. What does this mean besides my emotional level sky-rocketing? It means that I have to go back for additional testing to determine if I have gestational diabetes. Next Friday, November 9th, I will have to go for a 3 hour glucose test (which actually will take 4 hours total) to determine if I am able to process sugar adequately. My doctor told me my results were only about 6 points out of the normal range but it was still elevated enough. Please keep me in your thoughts next Friday... I'm hoping for good results and trying to keep positive. I, most likely, will not find out the results that day but hopefully soon after. I'll keep you posted.
