2nd Trimester

Holy moly and the end of second tri

I had a MW appointment yesterday and it kind of freaked me out.

-She told me I was going to double in size by the time of my next appointment.

-Both the baby and I are still measuring ahead.

-I got my tasty orange drink (LOL) to take for my next appointment and my GD test.

-I was told by the receptionist that after my next appointment I would be coming in every two weeks.

Already!? Ack!

Re: Holy moly and the end of second tri

  • I'm right there with you! After my appointment next Friday, I'll be going every 2 weeks - crazy!!

    And chose the awesome fruit punch flavor of the GD test to take home instead of orange - hope that wasn't a mistake!

  • awww congrats!!! I'm really happy for you :)

    Good luck w/ the orange drink (I have to do it twice, did my first 2 weeks ago)...I was terrified b/c of what everyone says, but it wasn't THAT bad. (Don't get me wrong, it wasn't a walk in the park either, but not awful. I was more upset about having to drink all the artificial dyes, etc).

    I know!!  It's amazing how quickly it passes.  And nah, my dr insisted the fruit punch was actually better than the orange but I hate fruit punch.  And word to the wise - pour it over a bunch of ice and use a straw to down it quickly.  Leaves less of that cotton-mouth afterwards that way.

  • I know what you mean. Its crazy  how fast the time is flying by!

  • Oooh I didn't have the fruit punch option. Hopefully the orange will be decent.

  • I know!  How did we all get here so fast?  By the way, the glucola stuff isn't that bad - it tastes like PowerAde - really sweet & a little fizzy.  Congrats on nearing the end of 2nd tri!

  • Congrats! i have a question though, does everone have to take the drink? or is it at a certain time in preg.

    I have been preg. before (m/c) and i only made it to 11 weeks, and i took the drink.

    With this one, Dr. has not mentioned it? and im 21 weeks tmrw....just wondering.....

  • It seems that the timing can vary. My MW office is having me do the test at 29 weeks.
