So I failed my 3 hour test....depressing..
Im at 32 weeks BTW
My OB seemed fairly positive still, she told me I need to see a dietitian (oh joy) and start testing at home but to "not freak out" about it....
So I left feeling OK but not great, went to my Fetal Medicine doctor who basically just does my ultra-sounds.
When he heard that I failed he told me
"You need to accept the fact that your not going to be able to birth naturally, get your ahead around the idea of an induction and c-section because the odds of them happening are high"
I pretty much walked out of the appointment,dragged my husband into the ladies room and had a panic attack...
Do I just have a shitty U/S doctor or is he right?
I have trust issues with doctors so now Im worried my OB is lying about not needing to freak out over this/it not interfering with a natural birth....shes the one who is going to be delivering the baby so I would hope she would be upfront about realistic expectations.
Im just so depressed over this, I see a dietitian sometime next week and I know its going to be horrible, I really do not eat that much but I know shes just going to be thinking "Fatass" the entire time :(
