Oh glucose test.....

Do you remember the orange drink that they used to have at McDonald's?  Well, imagine that, but hot and with  an after burn and you have the disgusting drink that I had to down today at the doctor's office!  I honestly dread the glucose test more-so than labor (and my body rejects those lovely epidural meds!)  Honestly, the glucose test is not bad as a whole.  You go in, they do your height, weight, BP, make you drink an flat orange drink (in 10 minutes), you wait for an hour, then have your blood drawn.  The drink is what's gross!  If you have a sweet tooth, it's not as bad because the drink is VERY sugary!  Believe me, it's MUCH better cold unfortunately mine today, was HOT:-(  When your drinking on it, it kind of has an after-burn, plus it didn't help my heartburn any! LOL!  Hayden, on the other hand, loved that sugary stuff!  He was doing somersaults and kung-fu the entire hour I sat there waiting.  I won't know my results until my next doctors appointment.  I was a borderline gestational diabetic when I was pregnant with Miss Emma, and after I did the 1 hour test, I had to do a 5 hour test!  Talk about FUN....not!  Thankfully, they only do a 3 hour test here!!  YAY!  I'm staying positive and really hoping that I won't have to partake in the 3 hour glucose test.  I feel completely different than I did when I was pregnant with Emma.  


I go back for my next check-up on May 14th!  Over the next couple of weeks, we'll be buying paint and re-painting Miss Emma's bedroom, rearranging it, and getting the crib and changing table in for little Hayden!  


On a side note, I found an article on Yahoo! today that named the most hated baby names and guess what one of the boys names is? Yep, you guessed it, Hayden!  Of course, it would have to be on there!  But I like it:-)  And let's face it, anyone who's been pregnant and had to have the name fight with their husband, when you decide on a name, you're just finally glad that you came to a decision without someone getting hurt! LOL!!!!  Shortly after we decided on his name, I realized something, both mine and Steven's names are part of Hayden's.
Hay- the first 3 letters of my name
en- the last two letters of his name


Might be weird to some people, but this is one of those "signs" that I look for that tells me when something is just meant to be!
