Pregnancy and Stuff

I don't want to write too much about my pregnancy because well, it ain't that exciting for most people. So this post is one of the few that I will talk about it.. slightly, with humour.. The good news is that I don't have gestational diabetes (thank you Sarah for confirming). Things with numbers and scary words have a Da Vinci Code effect on me and I read it as "You gonna die".

I had the test yesterday and the Husband accompanied me because he did this to me. If you have ever wondered what goes on in a gestational diabetes, well you've come to the right place..

You go to a lab. You can't have eaten or have drunken anything.. In German they ask you if you are "sober" to which you snort. "Um, yes.". They take your blood and you look at your husband and say "Give me a gift." you pee in a cup. They prick your finger and then make you drink a big ol cup of glucose. Mine was lemon flavor. You wait an hour and make up stories about the people who show up. They take your blood again and you look at your husband and say "Better be an awesome gift." and you pee in a cup. You wait another hour and get a little giddy because you're hungry. Then they take your blood again and you look at your husband and say "No seriously, this gift better be awesome." and you pee in a cup. Then they set you free and you giggle because you're just so damn hungry you could steal food from a passing school child. Yay! Done!

So that's what to expect and it helps to have someone there to pass the time and restrain you from crushing breath mints and snorting them. Alls good that ends good.. or something. End of pregnancy post.

It's snowing again and it is so unbelievably pretty that I can't wait to go back to bed and watch a Christmas film. But first, I must run to the store and buy cookies..

Happy Friday!
