They told me I didn't need to fast, so I ate a two egg cheese omelet. I was feeling a little queasy, because since I have entered my third trimester, I've been throwing up every other day. I drove to the hospital.. They made me drink the 'lemonlime' drink. At first, I was like, oh! This isn't so bad! Very sweet. Then it actually stung my throat. And then... The aftertaste was awful. I went back out into the waiting room. After 30 minutes I was ravenous and felt like I hadn't ate in days! This wouldn't have been so bad but when I get hungry like that.. I also get nauseated. 45 minutes went by. I was ready to throw up the drink. Which is bad because then you have to drink it again and start over.
Thankfully, one of my friends who just found out she was pregnant was there to try and distract me. She kept telling me, you don't want to throw up in front of all these people do you? I told her I didn't care who I threw up in front of.. It needed to come out.
Finally after 1 hour and 5 mins I got my blood taken and then raced to the bathroom to throw up.
Good news is that I don't have gestational diabetes. I do have low blood sugar though.
