Today I had my wonderful 3 hour glucose test. I had a fasting blood sugar of 89 with is perfect. I had to drink the Glucola (yuck) but it didn't make me sick again yay! I passed first hour, failed the second, and passed the 3rd by 1 point. Sooo now my doctor has to review my results and let me know what to do. I think I am fine since I passed 2 out of 3.
Liam had 6 shots, bless his heart he is so behind so he will have to go back every 2 months for the next 6 months to get caught up. He screamed and cried but as soon as we got to pick him up off the table he was fine. He seems to be doing ok, no fever yet and he hasn't been complaining about his legs so hopefully he will do fine with them. Josh was able to go with me and bring him back home after his shots while I stayed for my test, that was such a great help, I would have hated to keep him there for 3 long hours after he had shots. His blood work all came back good, except he has vitamin D deficiency which is common in African children, so now he has to take vit. D everyday and have his levels rechecking in 6 weeks. He has been doing good about taking the vitamins after I figured out how to sneak them into his food :) I am really surprised they gave him a gel capsule that he has to swallow....but we've got this thanks to a ton of support and suggestions from our friends and family!
Tonight is our Halloween carnival at church, Liam is going to be a bear! I am so excited to see him in his costume! I hope he feels up to going. I think he will have a good time. He is Mr. Social, looks like this mama wont be doing anymore blending in for awhile since we have to say hello to everyone we meet hahaha I am glad he wont be shy though!
