This right here...
has been sitting in my fridge and staring me in the face every time I've opened it for the last few weeks.
In just a few hours I have to take my glucose tolerance test. I have to drink this whole bottle of glucola 30 minutes prior to my prenatal appointment. I think I'm most worried about having to drink it within 5 minutes. I am a terribly slow eater and drinker and I hate the idea of having a time limit..haha. I've heard it doesn't taste as bad as you'd think. Apparently it's like a really sugary, non-carbonated soda. We shall see!
I am mostly dreading though, that I have to have my blood drawn. I HATE that, especially the rubber band thing they tie around your arm. I HATE feeling the blood pool in my arm. Not looking forward to it :/
Trent's coming with me to hold my hand! He's awesome! What a good dad he'll be :)
Wish me luck!
P.S. Post to come on our trip this last weekend to La Jolla :)
