Update: Dr. appt. and ultrasound

I had another ultrasound today and the tech said she would also guess boy but it is still too early to be sure.  But they printed me out 6 pictures of the baby, arms, hand, feet, and profile views.  SO CUTE!

At my Dr. appointment they just took my wt. and blood pressure and gave me orders for a quad screen which tests for possibility of Down's and 3 other things.

She also said that my sugar levels were elevated in my urine, and asked if I had just had eaten any sweets.  I had just come from lunch with a friend at Wendy's and had eaten a chicken sandwich, fries, and one of those berry frosty parfaits (tons of sugar!).  So she didn't seem too worried but gave me orders for a glucose test and said they would do a full screening for diabetes at a later time.

So that was kind of scary but I am hoping it was just that frosty.  I really should be watching my carbs and sugar more than I am. 

Re: Update: Dr. appt. and ultrasound

  • How exciting!! I hope everything is okay regarding your sugar levels. It makes sense that they would be high following that lunch, though. Fingers crossed that everything is okay :)
  • Yay, how exciting!  I bet the pictures are amazing!

    Lesson learned: don't eat tons of sugar before a doc appointment.  I hope everything is alright with your sugar levels!

  • how exciting!!! I loved getting ultra sounds....I opt'd out of the quad screening tests...the glucose test wasnt as bad as everyone said it was....mine tasted like flat orange pop

    oh I always forget and have sugar before my appts and my dr always says did you drink pop or have candy before you came haha

    when is your next appt

  • Glad to hear everything looks good. I wouldn't worry about the sugar, this is why I always have my appts in the morning before I can get too much sugar in me and screw them up and end up with more tests than I already have, haha! 

    When's your next appt and the big a/s? 

    Anniversary

  • Yay for pictures of baby!!  I'm sure it was just the frosty, but even if you do end up with gestational diabetes, it isn't so bad-it actually helped me eat so much better and not gain too much weight.
