Vacation day 1 (Sept 14th) started out with an early morning message from our lab that was doing our physicals to tell me that since I was prego, no need to fast. I was more than happy with that information seeing as how our appointment wasn't until 11am and there was no way I was going to be able to make it until 11am without feeling horribly sick.
Our physicals for life insurance went just fine and two viles of blood and a urine test we were out the door.
I made sure to bring my new lab slip with me just in case I felt the want/need to also complete it while I was down in the area. I decided that it might be a good idea so we headed over.
By this time it's about 1230 when we arrive and Sean still having not eaten anything decides to wait until I was all done to get something to eat.
Upon arrival I made sure to let the attendant know that I had to do a glucose test. They gave me my juice and said drink in 5 minutes and then you'll have to wait 1 hour to be seen.
Let me just tell you...the juice was cold but it tasted like BUTT! They tried to cover it up with a lemon lime flavor but the consistency was twice as thick as water and non-carbonated so it was like flat soda. A few times I had to choke it down.
I waited my 1 hour and was sent back. The lady behind the counter started pulling out tubes to fill and I thought it would never end. She finally stopped at 5 and also instructed me to use the restroom for a urine test.
By this time I was ALL TESTED OUT!
2pm arrives and Sean and I are STARVING!!! We finally get out and head to the local taco bell. Taco bell never tasted so good!
I think I'm over testing for a long long while! Hehe, at least tomorrows ultrasound doesn't require blood, urine or otherwise. Just a full bladder, and hopefully some cute lil pictures where we might be able to hear the baby as well as see some arms and legs. :)
