Mommieto2Girls replied: Awwe , I'm sorry to hear that, , but at least you got a ultrasound. How did it go?

The one I drank (lemon-lime) wasn't to bad the first time, it was the second time when I failed the first test, that it was awful, they make you drink the whole bottle, YUCK !!!

Kaitlin'smom replied: I liked the sugary drink course mine was carbonated! tasted like orange crush

MommyToAshley replied: Mine wasn't carbonated...not fair! Tasted like pure coke syrup... I am not sure which I hate more, that test or the dreaded pap! LOL

So, how did the U/S go? Other than you passing out!

Kaitlin'smom replied: I dunno how I got the carbonated one, seems like most dont. I was soooo expecting it to taste awful, that I was sooo supprised when it did not! I could have had more.

oh and the annual pap deffinatly worse!

supermom replied: I've had both the non and the carbonated and the carbonated isn't really too bad - that was what I got this time and I was soooo dreading it and it ended up not being too bad after all.....

Yeah, how did it go after they revived you??

OklahomaSooners replied: LOL you guys..

Well.. the ultrasound went really well.. although it scared me when she asked me to do it in the first place. my tummy measured a little bigger than she would have liked.. so she sent me in to make sure the baby wasn't too big. of course.. I"m panicking wondering what I've done wrong.. besides gain 30 pounds in 6 1/2 months

But the ultrasound went well.. baby weighs 2 pounds 1 oz. and she was playin with her toes!!!

supermom replied: That is a beautiful name, and congrats on being "Pink!!"

CantWait replied: ~Congrats on Pink~

I too had the carbonated orange drink, ick yuck gross, I don't like orange crush so it didn't fancy me at all......

Mommieto2Girls replied: I'm glad to hear everything went well with the ultrasound.

Welcome to the pink team!!!!

A&A'smommy replied: Hey,
I got lucky i got the stuff that tasted like orange crush it was soo good and i was ssooo hungry! im having a little girl too!!!

3xsthefun replied: Glad to hear your ultrasound went well. And I like the name you picked out for your little girl

I'm sorry to hear that drink made you sick. The drink I had actually didn't bother me. It was a cola like drink.

Jamison'smama replied: Welcome to the wonderful Pink Team

--I had the carbonated orange drink the first time---not bad--the second time it was the doubly sweet drink and it was AWFUL--

Can I assume from your name you are from Oklahoma? I am from Tulsa originally and will be there to visit my family in a couple of weeks--my parents are season ticket holders to the OU games--we are all HUGE fans.

catou_98 replied: Oh, I know what you mean about that "thing" they force you to swallow! YUCK


Bot otherwise glad to hear all is good with you and the baby....and

Welcome to the pink team!!!

OklahomaSooners replied: Yessss I live in Choctaw, Oklahoma. I graduated from OU, and my husband graduated from OSU.

Needless to say, OU/OSU games are really fun at our house!!!

Jamison'smama replied: sounds like our house---dad graduated from OU and brother and sister from OSU--DH and I graduated from OSU but it was Ohio State ---rivalry is fun--first OU game this weekend and it is supposed to rain (from what I hear).

Good luck to you---I read your other post and sending ~~~TURNING BABY VIBES~~~~

but if you have a C-section---you'll be fine--I did not think it was that bad --healed just fine and Jamison had a beautiful round head

A&A'smommy replied: Hey,
Dont feel bad about your weight gain i gained twice what you have and i didnt weigh very much to start out with so i know how you feel its a little scary but as long as the baby is okay thats great! When is your due date? is this your first?? Well congrats!!!

mckayleesmom replied: I never had to do the diabetes testing....I waited for it, but it never happened. But my doctor is kind of old school and he takes urine samples on every visit and my suger levels were never out of range, so he doens't like to do tests that he doesn't seem are neccessary I guess.
