Glad it worked out! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-254935 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 14:40:41 +0000 Mrs. Jacks 254935@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm glad you passed your 3 hour! I had to do that too (and passed).</p> <p>Tonight I'm working, so I'm just hanging out with my girls today and being very impressed that any mom can be a stay at home mom. I could NOT do this! Amazing job, SAHMs! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-254933 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 14:38:11 +0000 mrs. bird 254933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Woohoo! Yay for passing! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-254926 Fri, 10 Aug 2012 14:34:49 +0000 DillonLion 254926@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I passed! Phew. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-253217 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 13:48:01 +0000 LuLu Mom 253217@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: I didn't think it was bad at all! It's sweet, but if you just down it like a big shot you are fine. It took me maybe 30 seconds to finish it? it wasn't as much as I was expecting, and the orange to me tasted like Sunkiss! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-253206 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 13:35:15 +0000 MamaMoose 253206@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: Ooo good idea. I will pack a straw in my purse : ) </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-253203 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 13:34:33 +0000 DillonLion 253203@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: They said the results will be ready tomorrow. </p> <p>I drank both drinks (the one hour test on Tuesday and the 3 hour one I did today) with a straw and that helped me get it down quickly with less issue. So definitely use a straw! I was required to do it in 5 minutes. I did a fruit punch flavored one instead of the standard orange. It wasn't great, but I never felt like puking...so it wasn't that bad. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-253201 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 13:32:57 +0000 MamaMoose 253201@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@highwire: Yuck! Do they tell you right away if you passed? At my appointment today they told me that I will do the glucose testing at my next appointment (28 weeks). I've heard some people say they were given 10 minutes to finish the drink but my nurse said they only give you 5 minutes. I don't know how I'm going to chug that stuff without puking!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-253197 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 13:29:09 +0000 DillonLion 253197@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Finished the test, ate lunch, and now feel super exhausted and lightheaded. I wish I would have just taken the whole day off work. :( </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-253109 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 12:23:51 +0000 DillonLion 253109@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>One more in 20 minutes and then I am out of here! Yeehaw. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-252985 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 10:48:36 +0000 DillonLion 252985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>2 draws down, 2 to go... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-252933 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 10:24:17 +0000 DillonLion 252933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@purrpletulips: Sorry you are feeling off! They have Finding Nemo playing in the waiting room so I'm just watching that.... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-252930 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 10:21:50 +0000 purrpletulips 252930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I'm at work but thinking of going home, just feeling "off" today. I too enjoyed the free wifi during my 3hr glucose tests. I found that one "Bridezilla" episode was exactly perfect for watching between each blood draw; i'm not a fan of the show but didn't want to get into anything and miss one of the draws since the lab I was at makes it your responsibility to notify them when you are due for a draw. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-252916 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 10:13:26 +0000 DillonLion 252916@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Mrsbells: I'm starving and thirsty. I'm going to ask them if I can at least drink some water. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-252912 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 10:10:41 +0000 Mrsbells 252912@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>haha yeah that glucose drink gets the baby super active! Hopefully the time flies by so you can eat. Nothing worse than being hungry when you are pregnant </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-252909 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 10:06:36 +0000 DillonLion 252909@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@MamaMoose: Aw have fun at the beach! We are heading out of town this weekend as well, and I'm so looking forward to it. </p> <p>Good luck at the 24 week appointment! Mine was 2 days ago...it is weird to be back here so soon. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-252899 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 10:01:54 +0000 MamaMoose 252899@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>In an hour or so I'll be heading over to my doctor too for my 24 week appointment. I'm looking forward to hearing the heartbeat again because my little buddy has been very lazy with the kicks today! I'm hoping my doc doesn't get called out on a delivery because I would like to get in and out of there quickly. Other than that I'm just counting the hours until I fly out tomorrow night to head up to the beach with my family!! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/hanging-at-the-doctors-office-all-morning#post-252892 Thu, 09 Aug 2012 09:56:22 +0000 DillonLion 252892@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Enjoying the three hour gestational diabetes test and blood draws today...on an empty stomach. I just pounded the double concentrated glucose drink and my baby is bouncing around in there like she smoked crack. </p> <p>My blood count came back low so they also took another 5 vials to re-test and see what is causing that as well. </p> <p>Glad to have the free wifi at least! And today was going to be a slow day at work anyway, so it was a good day to have to take most of the day off. </p> <p>What is everyone else up to today? </p>
