I called my doctor's clinic this afternoon to check if my results were already forwarded by the lab. The nurse immediately told me that my blood sugar is normal--THANK GOD! That means NO GESTATIONAL DIABETES. I'm still a candidate for normal delivery! Yay!
However, my CBC results say that my iron is low. Odd though considering I take my Natalbes on an empty stomach (it's the first thing I do immediately when I wake up). My doctor will probably give me more iron tablets or change my pre-natal vitamins. I'll see her again probably on the 15th.
The whole day though, Sebastian kept on poking the right side of my stomach. I kept on rubbing my side and was quietly asking my baby to move a little bit to ease the ache. My stomach's better now but I think the baby's still settling down for the night.

iron pills should be taken with orange juice for better result. COngratulations at hindi ka candidate for GDM.
Well done Sunshine! Another three months to go! So basically you are all okay then?
yes, i'm basically ok except for the low iron. i just have to eat more vegetables i guess.
There is pinakbet, sinigang and all those lovely pinoy veggies to eat! Pero make sure you do not get anaemic!
not only in veggies....you can get iron from red meat and organ meat. btw, green leafy veggies dapat.
