Just found out I passed the test! Super happy I don't have to do the 3 hour one!
Glucose screening
Just got home from doing my glucose test. Aside from how sugary the drink is. It's actually not too bad. They gave me the orange one. Tastes like an over sugary flat Fanta. The nurse didn't think I was going to make it the hour apparently. She said I looked really pale. I laughed. I am ALWAYS really pale. But yes ladies. It's not as bad as everyone makes it out to be. 🤗 good luck to any mamas that still have to take the test!

Yeah it's not that bad really. It's just super sweet. But she said the 3 hour is even sweeter. The 1 hour is 50g of sugar and the 3 hour is 100g. I don't think I could do the 3 hour drink. That would be way too sweet.
The best way to drink it is ice cold. It goes down the easiest.

I know for next time. mines kind of a hospital. the maternity center is a add on and there are two floors for it. they have a piece of tape glued onto the bottle with drinking instructions so I couldn't really see anything else on the bottle. but I know it's fine and easier for my next pregnancy.

Mine was cold also.

I always had mine cold and passed
I agree, I thought it was going to be much worse. Exept I had the red one which tasted like really sugary fruit punch. I'm not a big fan of fruit punch in the first place especially warm. But I had to stop and take a few breaks so I didn't throw it up because of the sugaryness. But over all its not that bad! Just sucks you can't drink water until they draw your blood an hour later

They told me I was allowed to have water. That's the only thing I was allowed to have. But yeah I would not have done well with fruit punch. And my drink was cold. That helped a lot I think
