Yes, I am/was on meds. My numbers were high from the beginning of the pregnancy. I never had to take the glucose test because they already knew from my initial bloodwork that it was going to be an issue. I am being careful with what I eat. I can eat some things without having any reaction (even cookies) but other things (like white rice) send it to the sky.
They say it's hormonal.
I took the new dose last night for the first time and it was 175 after 2 hours..... crazy high!!! This morning it was down to 89 which is good. I took a greater dose after breakfast and it was 95, also very good. We'll see how this works out. I just hope the meds start working for the evening too. I don't want to take shots. If I can hang on for a few more months it should be fine. They are talking about inducing me early because of it. We'll see.
You've gained only 9 pounds... I am jelous! I've packed on 24 lbs so far.
And this is because I am on a restricted diet.... oh well.
I think you will like the classes. So far the ones I took were fun.
The maternity tour last night was very fun.
First they did some baby trivia and you won little prizes (samples and baby toys).
Then they showed us the following Bill Cosby skits on childbirth:

We all were laughing so hard we were crying.
Then we did the tour of the facility. I thought the rooms would be a little bigger. I automatically thought that whoever will be with me overnight (mom or hubby) will be very uncomfortable. I will make them go home. I don't want either of them sleeping on the foldout chair...
