Well that was fun (pg mentioned) and long

I was sitting at my desk at work this morning when I started to feel shaky and really hot. My cubemate was talking to me and I had to interupt her to tell her I felt like I was going to pass out. So I laid down on the floor. She went and got me a cold pack and put it on the back of my neck. I felt like I was burning up!

I work in the front office so several co-workers walked by while this was going on, it was so embarrassing. My cubemate called my hubby and he came and took me home. I talked to the OB nurse and she said episodes like this are very common in pregnancy. She recommended having protein in the morning to stabilize my blood sugar. I had eaten a bowl of cereal and half a banana which apparently made my blood sugar spike and then suddenly crash. : /

I feel better now, just kind of off and worn out. So I'm taking it easy and staying in bed for a while. I was nervous about the baby 'cause she wasn't very active this morning but I've gotten several good kicks since I've been home so I know she's doing alright.

At least this didn't happen in the middle of the store or something! Ahh, fun stuff!
