28 Weeks: It's Getting Rough...

Well, I am 28 weeks tomorrow, and I heard back from my OB regarding my blood work last week. He left me a voicemail because I was in a meeting (which is typical), but for the very first time I heard, "Hey Allison. Your labs came back with some abnormalities, so please call me when you get a chance so we can go over them."

CRAP.

I had been feeling "off" and very tired for the last week or so, but I figured it was just the third trimester kicking in, the heat starting, the end of school, etc. Not so much. Apparently, my blood sugar tested high after my glucose test, AND I'm iron deficient.

CRAP.

So, now I get to start taking some lovely iron supplements which I hear are very unpleasant for your stomach, and I get to go sit at the doctor's office for over 3 hours on Friday morning to take the fasting 3-hour glucose tolerance test where I will be stuck with 4 different needles and more than likely either faint or vomit at the end.

DOUBLE CRAP.

This baby girl is kicking my BOOTY. She better be cute! :)
