I got a call back from the nurse at my OB's office. My test results came back positive for Gestational Diabetes. So, tomorrow I have to go and see a Diabetes Counselor and meet with a nurse. The appointment will be for 2 hours and we will go over diet, nutrition and how to monitor my sugar levels. The nurse made it sound like I would have to do my own blood test each day, but she wasn't real clear about the whole process. The regular nurse is on vacation, so I talked to one of the other nurses in the office. We will also continue to monitor the baby closely to make sure he doesn't get too big. I've only got about 10 full weeks left until delivery, so hopefully it wont be too hard to watch my diet. It sure is too bad that we discovered this right before Christmas! I guess that means I'll have to watch the desserts rather than eat them. :o)
