Anyone else avoided the diabetic check thing they do at 24 weeks pregnancy? I feel like it's so unnecessary and I didn't have diabetes in the first pregnancy.

I havent had it even though they suggested I might have had it undetected in my first pregnancy as tommy was so big.
Why are they saying you need to have it? Xx

They saying because I'm Asian I need to have it. As culturally Asian women can have diabetes. But I didn't have it with my son and I feel ok plus I been eating hardly anything cause of the sickness with my second pregnancy 🤣🤣🤣 I just want to avoid going hospital!!

I had mine done last Sunday. I didn't have diabetes in my first pregnancy and the only diabetic in my family is my uncle.
My baby girls stomach is measuring 4 weeks ahead so they wanted me to have it to be on the safe side.
It was absolutely fine, the worst part was sitting for 2 hours waiting for the 2nd blood test, I just took a book to entertain me. My results have came back clear thankfully

Each pregnancy is different so just because you didn’t have it in your first it doesn’t mean you won’t in other pregnancies. Personally I think it’s best to have it done than not.

I refused it. I said I had no symptoms and if I developed symptoms I would then do the test..

I didn’t have it with my daughter but was diagnosed at 28weeks with my son so you definitely can develop it having not had it before 😂😂

But then again my hospital are doing it different whilst Covid is around they are doing something called a hbac1 I think? Where you fast over night and they only check your bloods once and if you have the markers on that test they go from there so I didn’t have to have the 2/3hour wait and a horrible drink to have or anything just one blood test then given a kit to diy and regular meets with diabetic team
