More nervous about the glucose test then labor
Well I am taking the 1 hr test on Saturday and I am so scared. When I was younger, I would eat cookies and sugary foods like any kid does. But then at around 14-15 yrs old I started having hallucinations and just overall weird symptoms. My mom took me to an internist and they sent me for the 6 hour glucose test which I failed BIG TIME but the opposite as GD. My blood sugar level went down to 32. The doctor there was shocked I never fainted from it.
Anyway... I have been on a low carb/high protein diet for the last 14 years and I am terrified to put pure sugar back into my body and have a reaction.
Just venting... thanks ladies.

Nothing is normal about your body when you're pregnant so if you have to, just try to keep positive thoughts and hope that you will have a different reaction.
