I'm scared to take my glucose test friday.... I don't want it to come back positive for gd.. but…

@oklahoma.girl55, then don't worry girl! I'm sure you'll be fine.

I wasn't sure if your sugar intake during pregnancy could cause it or not. I've tried to stay away from pop and caffein but I basically relied on it before I was pregnant so it has been a struggle! @candacelouise

@oklahoma.girl55, yes it does! But.. My doctor said a soda a day is fine. I haven't drank them that much but.. He said it was perfectly fine!

its not even about how much sugar you take in its just about how well your body breaks down the sugars you take in even breads and pastas can affect it if your body isn't good at breaking the sugars down..but trust me I drank soda and juice all day every day ate candy cake cookies I had a sweettooth for real and my score was very LOW like a 73 and you can't go over 100 something I forgot the number..just be positive mama don't stress it

@kaliyahsmommy, ^^^^ yes! Some people's bodies just doesn't handle well.

Even the healthiest of people can end up with GD. Cause their body just doesn't break it down. So don't stress, it's really not much we as mothers can do! And esp since you haven't tested yet.

@oklahoma.girl55,

yeah exactly lol @candacelouise the healthiest of people really do end up with GD and its crazy but unless you put yourself on a super strict diet its hard to stay away from the "sugars" that will affect your test
