I started it a week before Anna was born. It was no big deal. I hated collecting a 24 hour urine sample though (imagine an extremely pregnant woman trying to pee in a cup and dumping it into a bottle in the fridge for 24 hours. Can't I pee and just go back to bed? Though it was really fun while in labor... I LOVED going in to have the doctor look at my back and confirming it was time for me to go to the hospital. "Uhhhhh...here, I won't be needing this anymore" Leslie hands over red gallon jug with biohazard symbol on it. Looking back at it, it's quite funny. I was freaked a bit at the time.
