I really wish that they would tell you it was going to take 4 hours to do the 3 hour GTT. I had only planned on a sitter for 4 hours and now I have to be in the lab with nothing to do for that amount of time......grrrrrrr
I wish I would’ve remembered to locate my headphones or charge my tablet......sadly all I have is my phone and a tiny waiting room full of people, so no watching videos, movies for me......and I forgot our Netflix login🤦♀️
With my last pregnancy I took my iPad and headphones and caught up on a tv show I was watching. I set the timer so I wouldn’t miss when they called me 😂. If it didn’t make me feel so miserable, it would have been quite the relaxation trip. If I need one this time around I might bring a pillow too.
@knockout, I got checked in in a matter of seconds. Lab tech told me it would take nearly an hour to get fasting results back before they would let me drink the solution😕. Then after I drink it, I’m here for another 3 hours and blood draws at each hour. I just wish I had been told to plan on spending 4 hours at the lab and unable to walk around/do anything.
