Hi Beth!

Oh, this is so exciting, you're almost there!

From what I've heard and read it's perfectly normal.

Hi Beth,

" what to agonize over and other things you never even thought of when

you're expecting " says that it's normal to spill a little now and

then without getting GD. I think, with so short to go, even if your

blood sugar did get a little wacky, there'd be no real probs. You

could always try limiting your carbs for the next few days.

I'm sooooooooooooooooooo excited for you!

Beth-

I don't know about GD specifiacally, but diabetes runs in my family, so I

am tested on an annual basis , they do both a urinalysis and the nasty gook

drink stuff. Several years ago, I had a little glucose in my urine. They

sent me back in a week to be re-tested and all was fine.

Sounds like Tuesday isn't getting here fast enough for little

Noelbaby...hang in there! Have you got the bassinet put up yet?

Thanks, , and all else who answered this. Was talking to my

earthie-birthie cousin yesterday (4 healthy kids, 3 homebirths--no

hitches), and she said she's spilt sugar and protein once in a while

and it meant nothing in her case.

Yup, the bassinet is up, and it's got a sheet and is draped with some

baby afghans I made. My nephew brought me a changing table last

night and set it up, too. Bought a car seat . . . most everything I

can think of is ready. :-)))

This is good news...

I also tested a little high two appointments ago. Not a big deal,

and it was fine last time.

Just a few more days...! I'll bet you can't sleep you're so

excited! (Well, the big tummy doesn't help either, does it? I'm

having a heck of a time getting comfortable.) If I don't check again

before Tuesday, let me wish you the very best of luck. I don't think

anyone deserves this more than you. The love and support you've

shown everyone while going through so many tough times yourself is

just amazing. I am thrilled for you. Can't wait to hear all about

him!

Hi Beth,

It seems like yesterday when you announced your pg, and it's 37w

already! I'm so happy for you and DH. I'll be waiting for the birth

announcement!!!

My baby is very active, and he's keeping me busy all day, so I don't

read the mail, I just peek in from time to time and browse through. I

want to welcome new members, congratulate all new pregos, and wish

uneventful pg for all those who are waiting for Dday.

Are you ready? How 'bout DH? I won't be able to get to a computer

tomorrow, so I want to wish you the VERY VERY best with this

delivery. I hope that all goes smoothly and you are soon holding

Noelbaby (whom shall be known as Theodore as of tomorrow, right?) I

can't wait to hear your story.

Hugs,

Sara
