Orange Ickiness...
I went for my glucose tolerance test today. FUN! They have changed it in two ways since last I did it.
1) The drink isn't carbonated anymore. It was SO much better carbonated. Tasted like a Sunkist orange soda. Now it just tastes like super-sweet FLAT orange soda.
2) THey make you down it in five minutes. I swear last time I remember having 15 minutes to chug it. Either way, it was all I could do not to barf it right back up. (in which case, they make you come back and do it again another day, which was SO not happening... so I WILLED all 10 oz. to stay down)
So I peed in a cup. I drank the wretched concoction. I sat for an hour. I gave some blood. Here's hoping I passed! I think that's the last of the pregnancy bloodwork, barring any unforeseen circumstances later on... yay!
