Perfect ❤

@hadleemae2018, no you drink the drink then you wait a hour then they draw your blood and your done

@lulu85_18 I get dizzy also if I look its just the thought of blood that makes me sick to my stomach lol

An I know That's so nice they are letting me do it at home then just when I get the I dont have to wait an they get me back to get my blood drawn ☺

@hadleemae2018, that’s great that they’re letting you do it that way! You should be fine.

Also, I don’t like getting blood drawn either. I just make sure to turn my head and don’t look. I donate blood every year, and I do the same thing. I get queasy if I look.

@ckaitate so you just get your blood drawn an leave??

@hadleemae2018, I don’t like getting my blood drawn either but it was fast and I was okay 👌, trust me you’ll be ok actually let me know how it goes but make sure they give you orange cuz it taste like soda I never had any other flavor before so I can’t tell you how those ones taste

@ckaitate I think the part I'm nervous about is getting my blood drawn an ive had that done multiple times already lol then I dont want to puke lol

@hadleemae2018, yes hun you’ll be fine I felt the same way I was freaking out like oh like almost every mom I know said it was horrible and it wasn’t don’t sike yourself out for nothing you’ll be ok 👌

@ckaitate that's awesome!

@lulu85_18 I just called the doctors an he said I can eat the night before but I can not eat that morning I can only drink water. Also they said if I pick up a bottle to drink today I can put it in the fridge until Monday an drink it here an before the hours up go get my blood drawn . That's pretty nice so I dont have to wait in the office for an hour .

Not true mine taste like orange pop and I had no bad after taste or nothing I was good I didn’t feel sick or anything and I just took mine this week

@hadleemae2018, ask your doctor what they recommend. Most say you don’t have to fast for your one-hour test, but I didn’t and failed mine. The 4-hr one definitely requires fasting and I passed that one. I wish I had fasted the first time to avoid taking that super long test. I don’t think the one-hr test is as accurate.

@lulu85_18 I'm going to call right now an make it for the first one in the morning. I love early appointments just getting it done first thing in the am is so worth it lol

@meg1204 okay eggs it is. Yeah my friend took her drink home I was wondering if that meant she just drinks it at home then goes in before the hour is up.

@hadleemae2018, they will give you directions. I think it’s something like not after 10 p.m. I can’t remember exactly. You are definitely fasting the morning of. I recommend making an appointment at the lab really early so you can be the first person. That’s what I did. Definitely helped.

@hadleemae2018, I never heard of not eating the night before.. I go on the 22nd my doctor told me eat an light breakfast (eggs) nothing with a lot of sugar or something that breaks down to sugar..
also never heard of taking it home cause you drink it wait an hour and they take your blood..

@meg1204 I didn't know I have 5 mins to drink it.. Lol geez

@lulu85_18 its the 1hr test. So I can't eat the night before the test?? Oh man I'm going to be starving lol some people get the drink an take it home ive noticed is that so they dont have to sit there for the 1 hour?

Baby was super active though! She was a soccer player that day lol

I've done did it twice.. I didn't have any issues with it.. it just taste like flat coke.. to me.
I think the hardest part is drinking it in within 5mins..

Just drink a ton of water the few days leading up to the test, but make sure you follow the directions and fast starting the night before. Make sure you’re hydrated. Other than that, just bring a book or magazine to keep you busy.

Is it just the 1-hr test? You should be fine. I took a 4-hr one and it felt like I was in there forever.

@hadleemae2018, no not at all! I was worried too because I had heard all the horror stories but for me it wasn’t anything like that so hopefully it won’t be for like that for you either!

@morgan.elizabeth2018 so you weren't sick to your stomach ! Thats great I hope that's the only effect I have is sleepiness ☺

It’s different for everyone honestly. The drink didn’t even bother me, and the only after effect I had was I got kinda sleepy after due to sugar crash.
