I had another doctors appointment today. Let me tell you if you don't already know how much I hate needles. I'm not sure which I hate more: needles or snakes. Well that's not true, snakes are the spawn of Satan. Well today I had to take a test to tell the doctors whether or not I have gestational diabetes. So I'm pretty sure it's worse than birth. You have to drink this liquid that tastes like Jello before it hardens, except with like a cup more of sugar in it. Then they bring in this needle to gouge a hole in my finger. This is 2008, can't we think of a less savage way to diagnose someone? With that said, I passed it, no diabetes for the Megster.
Everything looks good though. You'll be happy to know that my uterus is measuring perfectly at this point, and that baby's heart beat is strong. 26 weeks down...14 to go.

I don't know much about the medication required for gestational Diabetes, but if it is anything like type I or an unhealthy type II patient you should be glad you don't have it. My Dad is a Diabetic and he has to put a needle in his lower abdomen everyday. Sometimes twice a day. Terrible, right?
I hate needles as well. All doctors have to do is threaten me with Diabetes and I'll become healthier than Lance Armstrong.
