Test Results

I finally get myself around to the lab to pick up the diabetes results - all is well - my blood count is a little low (normal, heck I'm pregnant - but otherwise very well.

Diabetes test

Off to the laboratory in my village for my tests today - no food allowed before the tests.

I take along my little bottle of urine - and then do a blood test straight away... I'm then given a drink that looks somewhere between Lucozade and Red Bull - and doesn't taste that great either... I'm then told to rest in the lab waiting room for 2 hours and I'm given another blood test. All I can say is bleuh....

Results to come in the post.

My next gyne appointment - 19 weeks

Just a normal check up. All is well - he says I've only gained 2 kilos - I think his scales are broke!

I come away with a prescription to go to the lab. for a diabetes test (more on that later) and a toxoplasmosis test.

I also get a prescription for my 2nd and big scan to be taken at the end May / Beg June, I have to go to an expert scanning chappy (the same guy that did the scan when I had my amnio) ..... a bit of paper for me to book an appointment to have a check up for an epidural for the end of August.... and a bit of paper to book me into the clinique... phew!

Euro45 and I'm back home smartish as we are moving home today - I wouldn't have booked a gyne appointment for today normally, but the doctor was off sick on Monday and I got my appointment changed...
