wow they gave me mine at my appt and having me test 4 times a day and I have to meet with the dr once a week to go over my readings

I'm going to have to do this due to my gestational diabetes as well. I was wondering the same thing. I'm not sure when I'm suppose to start it though. I haven't even gotten my glucose meter and I was diagnosed 2 weeks ago.

that's good. I go for my first time tomorrow.

don't be nervous...it's reassuring to go and know everything is OK. like I said my baby was sleepy in the mornings when I went so it was just in case. I think they just decided to induce me because I was going to be a few days later anyways and I had elevated blood pressure. she was and is perfectly healthy.

lol yes I don't mind being able to hear her heartbeat or see her on sono but just dint want to fail.

but I went twice a week from about 32 weeks...it's nice being able to relax and listen to the heartbeat. my baby was lazy when I went so I got a lot of ultrasounds lol.

ok thanks @eskawho that's what I'm nervous about especially since I'm only 33 weeks.

you can fail...if that happens you get an ultrasound and baby has to pass certain movments...if for baby fails that you have to go to l&d to be monitored...happened to me I was 38 weeks and she failed...had her 3 days later.

ok so I'm just nervous never did it before.

@mommyof3littleones, it's pretty easy they usually only last 20-30mins. They just make sure baby is good an everything. I did them twice a week from 36 weeks til I was 40weeks

is there a pass or fail? @mimi_s_the_boss
