Back down to having gained only 5 lbs. But hey, I'll take that since I had plenty of extra to begin with lol. Caitie's heartbeat is good and strong.

Since I'm still on the Metformin and the MFM doctor's office was requesting blood sugar testing (they can't seem to get past me being on it for PCOS and try to say that it makes me automatically have GD...).....my ob is having me do a different test instead of the 1 hour (so I won't have to do daily finger pricks). I have to do a hemoglobin A1C (I think that's what it's called). With my last pg, I didn't know that I should take my Metformin the morning of my test. Since my test was around noon, and I hadn't had a dose since around 5 the night before, it totally threw my numbers off and they refused to have me do a 3 hour. instead, they had me do the finger pricking tests several times a day and then dropping to once a day and then a couple of times a week...before they finally said, "all your numbers are normal. no problems" I was soooo frustrated that they wouldn't redo the 1 hour or do a 3 hour. So I'm glad my doctor is doing this other test instead. Hopefully that will satisfy the MFM doctor.

BP was fine. I'm measuring 25 weeks, so not far off what I am.

Good appt. all in all.

Sounds like a positive visit!

My mom is diabetic and is making me check my sugar every day. >.< I'm running out of fingers! Maybe the visit tomorrow will tell me I don't have to.
