Tell your wife to enjoy those orange slushes they give her for the diabetes test.

She's already had the pleasure of drinking that stuff ... it looked good in the bottle, but she assured me it didn't taste so well. She had to drink for a one- and three-hour test.

We have a great doctor who is aggressive and takes action ... because of her family history of diabetes, as soon as she started showing the slightest symptoms, urinating a lot and not being able to hold water, he had her get tested, and while she didn't actually fail the tests, because Amy wasn't happy w/ the numbers he went ahead and referred her to the Ctr of Diabetes.

It has slowly developed, but thanks to her concern and his action we were a little ahead of the game.

The baby could be bigger from the GD, but the docs seem to think it's more likely genetics because the GD didn't have a chance to develop much of an impact before it was caught.

I may peek down so she can here me say what the sex is.
