Failure
I knew it. I knew I wouldn't' pass the one hour glucose test. I have a family history of diabetes and I've never been able to say no to sweets. Plus, other than walking, I'm not that active. I have to schedule the 3 hour test now. I will probably be able to take it in the next few days.
I am so upset right now. I even cried at my desk, which is something I never do. I am worried I will not pass the 3 hour test, that the baby will be hurt, that I'll have to be induced early and maybe have a C-Section and lastly that I won't be able to eat sweets anymore. I am terrified that I will develop Type II diabetes later in life due to this. I read a statistic that said 50-60% of women who had gestational diabetes developed Type II within 10 years of giving birth. I gave away my stash of candy that I kept at my desk just now and it makes me sad thinking about another life change.
I don't want to deal with more change right now and I'm really worried that I have messed things up with my pregnancy. I'm sorry son, mommy already hurt you = (

I have so many friends who have taken the three hour test and passed it... So there is still hope! I had to have a c-section with my son, and it was really no big deal. I really wanted to have a vaginal birth, but I couldn't. It was scary, but once it was over, I realized how easy it was. The recovery is pretty rough (Especially the first five days) but having the little baby to hold really helps you get through the pain.
I have decided to have a vaginal birth this time around, so hopefully I won't have to have another c-section. But, if I have to have one, then I am not scared at all this time. I know it seems scary, but you will look back on it and realize how it wasn't a big deal. :) They also make the incision really low. It was so low that they had to shave me. :)
