A Bump in the Road

So I've been very thankful to have an easy, uneventful pregnancy. No morning sickness, still sleeping pretty well, no horrible aches and pains so far. But last week I did hit my first small bump. I failed my one hour glucose screening before Thanksgiving, then found out last week that I failed the three hour test. I have mild gestational diabetes. It's not a big deal - I just have to test my blood sugar and watch my diet, mostly my carbs. It's been a little challenging figuring out what I can and can't eat but not too bad so far. And I only have 2 months to go. Since gestational diabetes can cause the baby the grow pretty big, that's motivation enough for me to stick to the diet!
