liquids and cramps

All is well. No time to write about it (leaving for a week long vacation), but had some cramping this week. Bottom line: remember these two things: 1. Your uterus is constantly expanding and 2. Yes, staying hydrated is VERRYYY important. Even when you think you are hydrating, you probably need more water.

Passed my glucose test and the anticipation of drinking the awful orange liquid was worse than the deed itself. It tasted like an unfrozen freezer pop or a really concentrated sports drink.

Serenity and two lines to all,

  1. You're the first person I've heard who hasn't sworn up & down that the glucose test was the worst torture known to OBs. That is rather comforting - thank you for the honesty, because I'm only at 9 weeks & I'm already dreading that experience!

  2. I totally thought it was like a freezer pop too!
    Hope you have no more cramps(at least for awhile) and stay hydrated!
