This was so helpful! I’m opting to do this instead of the glucose test.

my friend opted not to get tested and ended up having gestational diabetes, the discovery was far too late requiring an ememergency c-section at 33 weeks. Good that youre testing :)

Wouldn’t it just be easier to do the glucose test?

my midwife and the radiologist told me my baby was measuring already 10pounds at 35 weeks. I went into labour at 37weeks and he was 5pounds 2. I questioned the midwife and she said the measuring is not accurate. 🙄 makes you wonder why they even do it if it’s that inaccurate!!

I was negative for GD w both babies. I have a high BMI. Both times they said I had huge babies, should be induced. was retested for gd and was neg. Refused growth scans and refused induction and proceeded to have a little girl 2.95kg and a boy 3.26kg. Both beautiful natural births in hospital. We don’t need all the things the say we should worry about

I didn’t test either (3 years ago)but may do that next time. Where did you get the monitor from? The midwife?

I used libreview on my arm and it's way better than pricking 6 times a day 😁

I'm fat and my ob was obsessed that I had GD, I did the glucose test twice and had hba1c blood test every month lol 😆 My boyo was measuring big too....he was just big and at almost 10 is still the same lol 😆

I wish I had known this was an option. The glucose test made me feel so ill and faint.

Great for people who have had weightloss surgery too as trying to down that horrible sugary drink can be difficult after that surgery
