Update

It's been a few days since our last blog. Josh starts his labs at school this week and has his first test of the trimester next week. So he is already studying so he can get a good grade. I found out last Thursday that I supposedly have gestational diabetes, and now have to monitor my blood sugar four times a day and eat on a meal plan. I have not been following the meal plan exact and have had no problems with my glucose levels. The nurse I talked to yesterday said that they were actually on the lower side. Josh and I believe that the glucose test is flawed because small women have less blood and therefore will have higher levels of glucose when given the same amount of drink as big women. Hopefully the nurse said yesterday if they stay steady to low then my doctor will allow me to only test twice a day for the remaining 12-13 weeks of my pregnancy. All the other tests that they have given me at the doctor have been good, she has a healthy heart and brain and my doctor said that eliminates most chances of something wrong. All I want is a healthy baby! We have a busy week, last night we surprised a guy in Josh's tri at school with cake. He lives with his mom and is not married and his mom was out of town so we brought a birthday surprise. Wednesday we are getting together to watch the season finale of American Idol. Friday we have a bbq with some of our great friends. Saturday we are spending the day with my family. Sunday is the usual church and Monday Josh will be studying.
