So, I missed a call on my phone and when I
checked my messages, it was my Dr's
office.
Why would they be calling besides to tell
me I failed my glucose test?!?!?! I really
hope I didn't fail it, cuz just the
THOUGHT of the 3 hour test makes me
queasy!! Me+needles= 
I have to call back at 12.30, so I'll let
everyone know what they say!!!

ok, I just called.
My glucose test came back "okaaay", but my
blood count is very low. So they're adding
an iron supplement to my prenatals.
Which sucks because I'm already needing
lots of fiber supplements to help me
poop....this is just gonna be horrible.
LOL...
With 3 tablespoons of natural fiber, I'm
pooping like a rabbit. I can only IMAGINE
what it'll be like with added Iron!! EEK!
LOL!

I'm glad I passed the Glucose test too.
She made it sound as if I had BARELY
passed it though, ya know? She wasn't the
most ENTHUSED person when telling me the
results!!!
I'm not too worried about the anemia. I"ve
been wondering why I've been super tired
lately...explains A LOT! LOL!
I told her I wanted my follow up u/s to be
this week coming because I couldn't wait
another 3 weeks. So I'm going to call
Monday and HOPEFULLY I can get in on
Monday for the u/s. I love sneak peeks at
the baby!!!!

i had to take 3-4 iron suppliments when i
was preggy and they were for anemic people
said not to take over one a day on the
package so i guess i was pretty anemic..
i've been thinking i might still be anemic
but i dont know

My prenatals have lots of iron in them,
and I take em religiously.
They have me taking only one per day,
they're really strong. The box says not to
take more than one per day as it can cause
overdose. Esp in preggy women who are
taking other vitamins that contain iron.
I never became Anemic with my first, so
this is all new to me. It's crazy how
different every pregnancy is!!
