I love how doctors do not believe their patience!
I have had to take the 3 hour glucose test with the 2 precious pregnancies. Why would this one be different? I have to take the 3 hour glucose test. I am not sure when I will be able to take it since SD is gone for 3 weeks. I will figure something out or I will have to take it at the end of the month. Which is not good. I have 2 kids and that lab is pretty boring!
Also I was informed that I still have low platelets. This is called thrombocytopenia I did not think to ask what my levels were but at one time they were 120. When I went to the ER at 18 weeks I was informed that they have been low since I had Princess at the same hospital. They are not going up though. I am trying not to worry about it. Seeing as they probably want me to have a csection you need platelets to clot. You really need them when you have a child natural or csection. I have read up on this and I eat a lot of the food that I have read to eat. Lots of dark green leafy foods and such. They are going to test me one more time and if they are still low I am going to be getting tested every week and probably some type of medication or perhaps a transfusion.
I did get my RgoGam(also known as RH)shot today. They have hurt all 5 other times I have had them!!! This one did not hurt at all! I did not even feel it!!! So that is taken care of until the Munchkin is born.
Over all not good news. I have many things to do on a weekly basis and to try to fit 3-4 hours in the week to sit in the hospital is rough!! I will get it done though. I might just say screw it and just go on the GD diet.
We shall see!
That sucks. I'm sure it's very tough right now without S.D.
ReplyDeleteIf I were you, I probably would go on the GD diet... my mom went on that diet and LOST 15 pounds from the time she got pregnant to the day before she delivered. And my brother was 11 lbs 3 oz! While restrictive, it's not a bad diet to be on at anytime.
Good luck... you'll be fine! :)
