I failed :-(

My 3-hour glucose test that is. After getting pricked 4 times I was set free to eat like a pig and I sure did. My arms hurt really bad and they're turning purple as we speak. Poor Audrey was with me the whole time and was so good. I took her to dollar tree for some goodies so she was a lil entertained, after a while she asked when we were going home, lol. Not in a bugging way though, just very curious if that was our new home! Well it'll be my new home for the next 12 weeks cause I have gestational diabetes and will have to see a nutritionist AND high risk doctor every week now, blah! It sucks but I know it has to be done. ON top of last minute homework, presentations and finals, I have that to worry about. So here are my results:

Component Your Value Standard Range
GLUCOSE, FASTING 90 <95 MG/DL
GLUCOSE 1H POST 100 G GLUCOSE PO 195 <180 MG/DL
GLUCOSE 2H POST 100 G GLUCOSE PO 177 <155 MG/DL
GLUCOSE 3H POST 100 G GLUCOSE PO 119 <140 MG/DL

I don't think they're that bad and can be controlled with diet. I failed 2 of the 3 so that makes me a canidate for GD. In a way this will help me cause it will keep my weight down. From this point on I don't want to gain more than 5 pounds. My goal was 15 total and I think I'm around 10 lbs. gained so I know I'll be losing weight towards the end when I can't eat anymore and then with my diet on top of it, 5 pounds sounds good.

I'm also having another problem, My groin area is hurting a ton right now. I feel as if someone came at it with a hammer, the pain is intense and has made me cry twice already. Other than that, nothing else really. Lil Nate is always on the go and moving, he's moving right now actually. I can't believe I'll be 7 months in 1 week and 1 day.

Before I forget, we haven't set up the crib, its still in my living room and needs to go in its spot desperately. Naty works tomorrow so I told him once he gets home he's setting it up, lol. I'm not that brutal but we'll see! I really want my room done with!
