Can someone explain the glucose test to me, like all the steps and what it is like. I have mine Friday and I'm stressing out about it. I panic about needles and blood being taken I hate it and the thought of it so maybe knowing how everything is done ahead of time will help.

the 1 hour test is super easy, like the other ladies said, you just drink the drink and then do one blood draw an hour later. just make sure you stay hydrated that day so they can draw your blood easily. the 3 hour test is a little more complicated, but you hopefully won't have to do it. the drink tastes just like soda, about the same amount of sugar, just no bubbles, so don't worry.

don't change anything because that can mess up your test.

just do what you do on a regular basis and yeah just a normal blood draw

@candacelouise, @noemysmom thank you. Do they only poke you once and take blood like they do at the normal visits and is there anything I should be doing before hand? I have my test Friday so I wasn't sure if I should be avoiding sugar or what.

@xxsammi.love, all you do is go to your doctors office, they call you back.. The nurse gives you a cup of 8oz cold sugary drink. You have to drink it all right there. And then I went and had a sonogram done saw my ob and right at the hour mark went and had blood drawn. It was nothing! Don't stress. It's really nothing to it.
