Yesterday, I had to go in for a 3 hour test to see if I have gestational diabetes. It was not fun at all!! I hate being stuck with a needle so the thought of being stuck 4 times was just a bit too much for me!! I got through it though by thinking this is a piece of cake compared to labor! :) Isn't it funny how your tolerance of pain changes knowing or having already had a child!! It makes me laugh! :) The nurse told me that the sugar water I was drinking would for sure make my stomach feel bad and if I threw up I would have to reschedule the test for a later date. That did not make me happy. By the 2nd time they took my blood, I thought I was about to throw it all up. I kept thinking, no way, I have already been stuck twice, I a half way there!! I went out to my car and just relaxed a bit and thankfully the feeling went away. I made it through the test, completely exhausted when I got home. I had no idea that something like that could take it out of me! They told me that I should have the results in 2 days, so I will make sure to let you all know if I am going to be without sugar my last 2 months of pregnancy, oh how I hope not!!!!
In other news, I am going to get a 4-D ultrasound on Thursday morning. I am super excited to see how my little girl is developing and changing, I will be sure to post pictures so you all can see too!
Last night, Clark was speaking at Young Life and the whole time he was speaking, Sadie was moving in my stomach, it was the neatest thing to see how she recognized her Daddy's voice. I love it!!!
Today is Clark's Birthday!! I LOVE birthdays so much and had high hopes to make it so special for him. But he has to work and we have child birth class tonight. I hate it when we have to adults!! But on another note, I am very thankful for him and wouldn't trade him for anything in this world. It has been neat to see how God has brought us together and our love for each other grows more and more each day! I love you sweetie and Happy Birthday!!!
