I have finally passed my glucose testing. I failed the first one hour test… my blood sugar was 145 (with the cut off being 140)… I had to do a fasting three hour test on Monday. I was a human pin cushion for four hours. My OB RN called yesterday to tell us that the results were normal. She suspects my first failure had more to do with my diet the days leading up to the test… sorry Jens and Kelly… I have to say it might have been the Nutella crepes we ate the night before the test… however, they were worth every single bite…
On the less positive side, I have developed pregnancy induced carpal tunnel in both of my wrists. With no apparent cure or remedy I am told this is something that will “resolve with delivery”… in two months!!!
I have three more weeks of work to get through and my OB feels like this will most certainly happen… I have to work until 07/03 to qualify for FMLA benefits. Today is my last day working for this week!! Only three more to go!!
