Hi - It's been a quiet week for the most part. I had to do a 3 hour glucose test on Saturday and did not pass. The perinatal department called and wanted one more simple blood test taken plus I was scheduled an appointment with a nutritionist and prescribed a blood sugar testing machine that diabetics use to test their blood. I got my blood test taken last night and picked up my testing machine as well. The nutritionist will teach me how to use it and tell me what I should and shouldn't eat. Like I don't already know this information, it's just a matter of following through with it. I'm pregnant! I want sugar, fruit, pasta and juices! Give me a break! Anyways, I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes so I have no choice to control my sugar intake. Darn it! The baby has been kicking and kicking. Jason finally got to feel some really good kicks by the baby too! Jason was so excited I tell ya. We were both getting frustrated that the baby would stop kicking when daddy got too close. lol Grandma Carol is still waiting to feel him move though. Baby Rodrigues is not putting on that show at all. We have a breast feeding class scheduled for tomorrow morning, so that should be interesting to say the least. But I am looking forward to it. Then after that, we should be going over to Target to register some more baby goodies. Yippee!!! I love shopping for the baby. That is it for this week. I hope you all have a great weekend and keep checking back here for more info every week. I tell ya everything even if its boring stuff. ;)
Love to all!

Well kiddo's it looks like all is going well for you, the diabetes is just a minor set-back, it happens to a lot of people. The baby will thank you for eating better, for me with Heather everything had to be on bread! Have you ever had pork chops and green beans on a sandwich, yummy when you're pregnant, gross when you're not. Good luck with the nutritionist.
