Wish me Luck!!

Today I have a doctor's appointment. It is my 28 week appointment (27 1/2 technically) and they are testing me for gestational diabetes. I am pretty darn sure that I am going to fail it. Not because I am down on myself and am thinking negative ... just trying to prepare myself for the worst. Part of my problem getting pregnant in the first place was my insulin levels ... coupled with that, my age, my weight, and my family's history of diabetes ... let's just say that there are a lot of red flags in the air.

I have prepared a whole list of non-carb foods for my menu today ... just in case I am borderline. I don't want my menu to throw me over the edge! Wish me luck!!!

Was it too bad? What flavor drink did you get? I went with orange my first time (which I failed) and fruit punch the second time (which I passed). I liked the orange drink better.
