Gestational Diabetes General Chatter #4

[Becci]

Thanks for your responses guys.
I have my test booked for 8am, which is as early as I could get, so fasting shouldn't be too much of a problem. Just might have a late dinner to help. Maybe have some basmati rice with dinner?
It's the waiting around in uncomforable chairs that I'm going to hate. Oh well, will take my crochet with me to keep me comfortable.
Will let you all know how they turn out. Have an appointment on Friday morning with the dr anyway, so I guess i will find out then.
Thanks once again.

Good luck with your test, Becci!

principessa - Lol @ such a nerd. Nah, you're not. Sometimes I get lazy and it's 2 1/2hrs, or something, but no longer then 3hrs. Most of the time it's around 2hrs or right on 2hrs. Depends what I'm doing or where I'm at sometimes. I have done a test like out to lunch one day, kinda under the table and in my handbag. Lol. Lucky there weren't many people around. haha

Personally I would be that stressed about having to do tests in public.
My good friend is a diabetic (in sort of remission at the mo thanks to organ donation!!!) and has always tested herself and given herself insulin when we are out.
So I wouldn't feel embarrassed or anything when I'm out with them.
