Test Results are in...

Ok, the test results are in and I do not have good news to report at this time.

Brent called me at work this afternoon and informed me that the doctors office had called and that I needed to contact them back regarding my test results from Thursday. Thursday I had the 1 hours gestational diabetes test. When Brent told me this my heart sank to the floor and started to beat 10 times faster. I knew that they would only contact me if there was something wrong and indeed there was.

My test results came back to be high. They would not tell me how high my results were, but informed me that I needed to have more intense testing done. They scheduled me an appointment for first thing on Monday morning. The test that will be completed on Monday is going to take between 3-4 hours to complete. I am really, really nervous. If I fail this test, as I did the last one it would mean that I have gestational diabetes. I really want to know what my levels were. I usually make my appointments on days that Brent can attend with me, he loves to go and get the scoop on the baby. However, when I asked if I could make it later for him to be able to go, the nurse acted as if it really had to be done ASAP. Which really frightens me. She said that I really needed to have the test done first thing Monday morning and not to wait any longer. By now I am really scared.

I know everything will be alright. My aunt once said that her office where she works no longer does the 1 hour test because there are to many people that fail it at her office so they only do the 3 hour test. But it still frightens me that I could be one of the select few that do get it during pregnancy.

A lot of things are starting to make sense now, even though I hope I do not have it. I shake sometimes for no reason (just ask Brent it freaks him out and I am not cold or anything), I am ahead of the game weight wise so far in my pregnancy (according to the doctor), I am tired all the time, and the list continues.

I should have my test results back, I would hope Tuesday since these tests results came back so fast. So, please pray for me that everything comes out just fine from these tests.

All I want is to deliver a healthy baby! So the less stress the better.
