Re: FFFC 2/17

  • @SKZW I'm not sure if it was on Facebook or lurking on other boards but I read people saying they were trying not to eat as much. I thought it was crazy

  • @Jens_Hoes: yup, crazy to suggest such a thing   :)
  • I didn't complete my GD drink. I drank 9 out of 10 oz for the GD test. Good enough considering I had sugar cookies with icing the night before?  :o


  • @pshaortao - NO JUDGEMENT, but how did you get away with it? They stood over me at the office, with a timer going, to make sure I sucked it down in the allotted time! 
  • My GD test came back with a slightly elevated number (140), so doctor just wants me to watch my carb and sugar intake. He's not making me monitor my blood sugars. 

    My FFFC: I totally housed a bean and cheese chimichanga for dinner. Well outside my carbs allowance, I'm sure. But it was freaking delicious.

    I had to do that my first pregnancy in the lab. This pregnancy (diff state/practice), they send the drink home with you at your previous appt. I was trying so hard to not gag just to finish most of it. My number ended up being on the low end of the range so I don't think 1oz more would have made much of a difference anyways.

    My first 2 were in a lab and they watched me too. But this time they gave me the drink weeks before my appointment and told me to drink it 30 minutes before my appointment and write the time I finished on the sign in sheet. I totally could've screwed it up. Was surprised they did it that way. It was quick and just a finger prick which was different from my previous two also. Every office is so different.

  • With my gd test they just gave me the bottle and walked away and trusted me to drink it, throw away the bottle and time it. Lol
  • @mspacman34 - I'm sitting here doing my 3 hour now and the tech checked my water bottle to make sure it was only water in it!!! Like I don't drink something else while waiting to have my blood drawn! They clearly have trust issues here.

  • My doctors office sends me home with the drink. They instructed me to drink it before I came in for my appointment, and to note the time I finished it so that I could have my blood drawn at the correct time. 
  • @ChristinaWild what in the world! I hope it went okay!
