So they make you do the diabetes testing at the beginning of your pregnancy now?! I have to collect my urine for 24hrs, then go do my glucose test... 🤔
AF due 29th, anyone else? Hi all AF is due 29th Sept for me feels like forever away. Has anyone tested yet or when do you plan on testing x
Has anyone had to drink this flavor? Almost my time to do the test..
my doctor said something about a genetics test at my week 15 appointment. what do they have to do? An is it optional?
What is the harmony blood test and where do you get that test done?
So now that I have my test strips when do I start testing! I am on day 2 of af today and it lasts about 3-4 days normally. I have about a 26-27 day cycle. Any help would be very appreciated thank you!!😀

They make me do it because of my BMI. I asked last time and they said it was bc I am over 200 lbs which puts me in a higher BMI for my height. The 24hr thing is protein, I did that for my pre-e at the end of my pregnancy with my daughter, not sure what it tells you this early but you have my sympathy!

I DIDN’T have gestational diabetes with my last pregnancy. They said they make you do it early if your BMI is over 40. Mine is 41. I had a lot of sac fluid with my first && they thought I would have GD, but I didn’t. So I guess the only logical reason is because my BMI is over 40.

yep. That's exactly it. Not sure on the 24hr protein though, that's odd. Good luck on both!!

No. All 3 I did it at 28w. Are you at high risk for developing GD?

I did mine around 30 weeks. But I didn’t have to collect my urine for 24 hours I had to drink some nasty drink sit there for an hour then they took my blood

Did you have gd with your first? If so they make you test at 13 weeks to just see it you show signs.

I had to do that too at 13 weeks. I didn't understand why bc if you develop GD, you won't develop it until after 20 weeks. Did u have GD before? I had it with my son and I figured they tested me early with this pregnancy bc I had it with my last.

that must be something new then. I thought they tested for early bc I DID have GD with my last full-term pregnancy. My BMI is also high too and it was with my son but they didn't test me with him til 28 weeks.
