Just got home to a letter from the hospital with an appointment for a glucose tolerance test. Letter says my doctor referred me but no ones mentioned anything to me about it. Is this just a standard appointment that everyone gets???

Spoke to my midwife she said it's coz my blood sugar came back high in my 28wk bloods. My dad and grandad are both diabetic as well so that may be why. X

I had to have one at 25 weeks due to weight gain, it's vile!! luckily results have come back ok, better to be safe as it can cause issues

I got told I had to have one because I was bordering overweight when I got pregnant. not sure if your area just offer them but my other friends who are pregnant do not have to have them! X

Yes I had mine last week. It is to check that the pregnancy hasn't caused diabetes x
