@shellbell0391 i dont eat or drink much things with sugar. I did with my son but didnt have GD. I just don't want to do it. i know myself I dont have it. I have anxiety so fasting is really bad for me cause if I dont eat every 2-3 hours I freak out and get very faint. Plus no one to watch my LO while I go do it.
I ate an hour before I drank the glucose drink. Drank it, went to my appt, told them what time I needed my blood drawn, and that was it. I didn't have to fast or make a separate appt for it
@andrewsmommy I did have to test my sugars 2 hours after every meal and record my glucose levels because I didn't take the test. I have a history of diabetes but have tested clear for 3 years so I already had a glucometer and strips to test. After I told her I was checking myself just in case she told me to write it down and bring my notebook to every appointment so she could see it.

@guaderrama_babies2 you didnt do it or did?

It's a good thing to do if you don't monitor your own sugar at home. You don't wanna have undiagnosed gestational diabetes.
