Time for a strawberry sundae :)

So this morning I went in for the dreaded 3 hour glucose tolerance test (OGTT).  The test consisted of fasting from midnight, then getting up super early (6:30am) to head to Swedish Covenant to have the testing done.  When I arrived they do an initial finger prick and blood draw to test my fasting levels.  Then they give you a 100mg glucose drink (aka the most digusting stuff on earth) to drink in 3 minutes.  From there they drew blood every hour, three more times.  It was a miserable experience - this world really needs to find another way to test for this, because it's just cruel to not let a pregnant woman eat =P. 

The max levels vs. my results are:

Fasting: 95mg/dL vs. 87mg/dL
Hour 1: 180mg/dL vs. 190mg/dL
Hour 2: 155mg/dL vs. 126mg/dL
Hour 3: 139mg/dL vs. 103mg/dL

So I did fail one of the tests, but to be diagnosed you need to fail 2 of the 4, so I passed!!!!  I can't even begin to tell you how happy I am.  I feel like the effort I've put into staying healthy has not gone to waste :). 

I'll be honest - I'm going to have ice cream today to celebrate ;).

On a side note - when I found out the news and got excited - X started dancing in my belly.  He must know how happy I am.  I love that little guy.
