Dr. Check-up

We had our diabetes test today. The orange drink was not nearly as bad as people had told me. I guess I am just a sweets kinda girl. It tasted like a melted otter pop to me :) YUM!  I told Jer if they would have made me I would have drank another one in a heart beat. It only took about 2 minutes to drink it..I could have chugged it but wasn't sure if I was supposed to :)  It took the nurse both arms to draw my blood though..bummer. Note to self request left arm for blood drawing :) I have gained 24 lbs to date. I need to make sure I only gain a pound a week though...from my last appt. until now I have gained 7 lbs! YIKES!  We didn't get to see our regular doc. because she was called out to a delivery so we saw another lady who was equally as nice. I asked her about the positioning of the baby and the head is up near my left rib...she let us feel :) The heart beat was 144 which it has been I think nearly every time we have heard it.  She gave me some reading material and exercises regarding back pain...I get it nearly every night and it is NOT comfortable!  Anyhow, we go back in 4 weeks!
