Vic and I spent the morning at the hospital today.  After having two urine tests at the doctors that showed high glucose levels the midwife booked her in for a test to see if she had Gestational Diabetes.

We had to be at the hospital at 08:00 this morning and Vic wasn’t allowed to eat anything after 22:00 last night. Being a breakfast kind of person this went down like a cup of cold sick smile  

The test is quite bizarre – they take a blood sample, make you drink 500ml of a sugar packed drink (in this case Lucozade), wait two hours and then take another blood sample.  After 20 minutes the results were ready and in our case everything was fine – phew!

Fidget’s living up to her/his name and Vic is thinking that he/she has moved head down now (most of the time) She was getting quite uncomfortable with Fidget lying sideways and her belly took on some very strange shapes at times……

oh and my new macro lens has turned up at the shop :vbg:
