Week 27 (Part 1): Murphy's Law

Murphy's Law: Anything that can go wrong, will go wrong

Feeling pretty really bummed. I failed my one hour glucose test which meant that my sugar level was too high. What does that mean? I had to go in for a three hour glucose test where they drew my blood 4 times. AND GUESS WHAT? I failed that one too and now I've been diagnosed with gestational diabetes

I'm now going to see another specialist aka an endocrinologist doctor. Le Sigh.
Glucose Drink for the first test- 50 g of sugar (equivalent to 3 colas)
Three hour glucose test - 100 g of sugar (equivalent to 6 cokes)
Baby J is growing! Look at the size of that head.

Sorry baby, you may be growing up in an only child household. So much for wanting four kids.

  1. Aww… Jess. Keep your head up! Gestational diabetes is pretty common for us Asian people. It kind of sucks that you have to stay clear of starch during pregnancy, but you'll get through it!
