Usually between 24 and 28 weeks. Routine test, dont skip it.

Mine was done around the 6th month and that is when my gestational diabetes was caught. Honestly I am glad they test then, it let me manage my diet in time. Dont skip it even if you feel fine, please.

My doctor scheduled my glucose tolerance test around 24 to 28 weeks, that is the usual time. They check how your body handles sugar to screen for gestational diabetes. You drink that sweet glucose drink and give blood after, not the tastiest but quick.

I have mine coming up around week 26 and feeling a bit nervous about that sugary drink. Did it make anyone else feel queasy? Just want to know what to expect.
