Umm, Fruit Punch November 2, 2006
I had another OB appointment today complete with glucose tolerance test. I got handed the fruit punch variety, and it wasn’t nearly as bad as I had planned for. I should get the results back on Monday.
Other than chugging a sugar loaded fruity drink not too much went on at today’s appointment. My weight and fundal height measurement are measuring on track, so that’s good.
I’m sure the people in the waiting room today thought I was weird. I brought in a bag full of six sharps containers. (And I knocked the darn thing over at one point dumping multiple sharps containers out onto the floor.) Now, people wouldn’t blink an eye at that at the RE’s office, but I guess it’s not the norm to be toting a bunch of used syringes into the OB’s office. Oh, well. I never claimed to be normal.

Good luck with the glucose test! Hope you freaked at least one person out in the OB office with the sharps!
Take care
here’s hoping the test comes back normal, it’s definately time for some normal don’tcha think.
re the sharps containers, you poor chickling, now your sharps-less how about I send you a few more containers pre filled just so you don’t get the DT’s from not looking at bright yellow tubes.
congrats on almost 28 weeks that’s some fantastic gestating your doing lovely.
Normal is boring in some circumstances, and I’d love to know what all those people in the waiting room were thinking!
Har har! I still have one under my desk (and in my closet and one in my file cabinet). I have a new container with the new meds, today’s syringe is still sitting on my desk - where to put it?
Oh and I got the orange and I LOVED it, but you know how I was about sugar… Good luck!
I had OGTT as early as 6 weeks and that orange thing they make you drink is disgusting.
Good luck on your glucose test!
Congrats on Trimester Numero Tres!!
. . . . I love the sharps story by the way. If I saw it happened, I would have smiled at you and helped you pick them up!
I hope you get good results back! I too got orange…didn’t know they had fruit punch…not sure which is worse!
Whoo-hoo! You’re past the 28 week mark. I’m SO excited for you, Amanda!!!!
