Need to vent
Aloha,
My husband and I are expecting our first baby on 12/24/18. We’re so excited for the arrival of Santa Baby. Whether it’s a boy or girl we’re so excited. I’ll be 37 in May and my husband is 42.
I understand with pregnancy people will say wacky stuff and offer up unsolicited advice. So far, only a few select close friends and my family know. Well, my little sister is my first dose of unsolicited advice. She and I have always been at odds. She’s extremely high strung and I’m super mellow and empathetic towards others.
I had my first prenatal visit this past Wednesday. My dr requested I of course get lots of blood work and do a glucose challenge test asap (not the same as the fasting test). Well, I did my glucose challenge yesterday.
Please see pics for the text thread and my smartass comeback.
I’m not an idiot. I’m currently finishing up prerequisites for nursing school with a 3.8gpa. My sister has never attended any sort of medical school. She’s a medical device rep. Give the girl scrubs and have her work in a hospital and suddenly she’s a doctor.
Ugh the joys of siblings. My two older sisters are awesome. The youngest gives everyone headaches. I know this is the first of her antics. Just going to minimize what I tell her and keep the peace.
I know I’m only 4wks and 5 days long and under normal pregnancy situations a glucose challenge isn’t done till later. I’m high risk due to my age and Epilepsy. That’s why my dr thought it’d be best to start checking early.
Thanks for letting me vent!!!
