If anyone out there has, had, or dealt with gestational diabetes during a pregnancy, I would appreciate it so very much if you would either leave me a comment, or email me.

I found out yesterday that my blood test did not come back very friendly-like.

So I get to either go and take another blood test (which I did last week, and, literally, came thisclose to fainting in the doctor's office because of the glucose solution), or I could just go ahead and start the gestational diabetes diet, and monitor my blood.

Yay.

Is my excitement coming through clearly enough?

So in my search on the internet (which was a REALLY bad idea; just like everyone always says not to research health issues on the internet, but why would I listen to them?) I didn't really find any more information on the subject, but did come across the following cool test.

Which, of course, I took.

Because I am a nerd.

A librarian nerd.

But just LOOK!!!

If the woman who taught keyboarding to me in high school could see that, I think she would be pleased with herself.

Beth, me again...you are so sweet to say that! I really try to have an interesting blog & lots of people come by, so I guess it's working. You made my day by saying all that about the magazines & pics. I love your Southern-ness too...too cute! And congrats on the new baby.
