I'm not a dr or anything but with my 1st pregnancy they did the glucose test early because I was…

My doctors have checked me early and at the regular time with my second and third baby because with my first I possibly had undiagnosed diabetes. I failed my one hour I had taken it late in my pregnancy and by the time they told me I should've taken the 3 hour I was already in the hospital being induced for another medical reason and while I was in labor my blood sugar was extremely high and the highest it went was 191. So during my second and this pregnancy I've been checked twice. Luckily I passed all 4 times.

Demand to get checked early and maybe again when you are 28wks.

@skyy12221 I failed bad with my pregnancy with my son. I failed the 1 hour and 3 hour, I failed the fasting blood draw for the 3 hour. So I knew I had GD as soon as I saw the paper. And my new dr knows this and that's kind of why I'm so concerned because even though I haven't gained much weight. I weighed 165 when I first found out I was pregnant this time and now at 15 weeks I weigh 165 still. But my body is showing other signs of GD and my Dr will not listen to anything I have to say. All I hear is "we'll talk about that at ____ weeks" about literally everything I ask him.

@dianne0825 I'd be pissed! He's supposed to care and listen to you!

I called and left a message telling them what was going on and I got a call back saying I need to bring it up to my Dr at my appointment on 9/11 @lindsey89 no one seems to want to listen to me

@skyy12221 I am pissed and at first I thought ok I'm a new patient blah blah blah but nope and literally everything I ask him about he laughs at, I assume it's a nervous thing he does but still extremely annoying and irritating

@dianne0825, keep nagging them. You are still early you may want to consider changing OB. If you are feeling really bad go to the ER.

@lindsey89 I think I'm going to because I don't feel like I'm being taken seriously and it's concerning me

@dianne0825, I loved my actual DR but hated the rest of them. I caught the medical assistant not taking my bp and writing the same one down for a few visits before I caught on. Mind you I was high risk for multiple reasons. I started taking it before walking into my appt and I bitches them out about it when I realized it. She was no longer allowed to touch me.

@lindsey89 omg that's horrible!! Who does that? That's awful

@dianne0825, right and coming from me being a CNA I knew she didn't know how to use a manual BP cuff and stethoscope. Towards the end of my pregnancy they got a digital cuff

@lindsey89 I hope you find a new ob soon you don't deserve to be laughed at or taken like a joke especially when pregnant and you can't see what's going on inside you

@dianne0825, go with your gut mama. Find someone who has better table manors

@skyy12221, my little one is 1 in less than 2 weeks. And if we do have another I will be going somewhere else.

@lindsey89 I would have went off on them. But then again I have my mother's attitude lol I try to keep it in check most of the time

@dianne0825, I did and my fiancé did as well.

@lindsey89 @skyy12221 it's getting to the point I don't want to tell my Dr anything that's going on with me because he doesn't seem to care, his nurse does but he doesn't

@dianne0825, yeah that's when you need to find someone else mama.

@lindsey89 any idea how I do that? I've never in the past needed to change Dr's, positive thing is its all in one location lol

@dianne0825 try calling the office and asking to change to another doctor there or just find a whole new office
