...my glucose test. not by much though (and on only two of the three blood draws) so it's not too big of a deal. The mid-wife I had met twice early in my pregnancy (and really liked) was the one who called to talk to me about it. I get to use a glucometer first thing in the morning, then two hours after each meal. She said since I was going on vacation it wouldn't be a tragedy if I happened to miss some of them, especially if the previous meal was at a restaurant, and if my numbers in general are good. It sounds like something I can manage with my diet, and since I tend to be low-carb and low-sugar anyway it won't require much change, knock on wood. I have to bring a log of my results to my next appt which is the Friday after we get back. She said if the #'s did look good, they most likely wouldn't have me do the glucometer every day. She also said if I have any questions to call her directly because she had GD when she was pregnant and she takes a special interest in other women who do as well. She was awesome. I'm so happy that there are two people at Lewisburg ob-gyn that I feel comfortable talking to. And now, I'm totally ready to stop boring you with the details of my experience there and move on already. Frankly, I'm sick of it myself at this point. Thanks again for all of the support. I consider myself extremely blessed to have you all in my life.

Tomorrow we're leaving for the beach. I'll be off-line for a week and a half. Last year when we went with Megan and her family, she and I practically free-based the amazing fudge that people sell there. Since I won't be able to do that this year, I feel a responsibility to warn Dave that I'll be filling that particular void by procuring as much seashell laden objets d'art as I can possibly get my hands on.
