Glucose test

Beth

So my youngest was born July 2015.. When I was pregnant with him, the normal time to get the gtt was 28 weeks (at my ob office). Two years later, I'm getting it at 16 weeks. I know part of it is due to me being overweight but they said they are doing it between 16-20 weeks now. I understand fully why they've changed it- early detection and earlier treatment is best- I get that, I'm an LPN. But why did it take them so long to figure this out. I really think this should be and should have been the norm for a long time now. I'm happy to be getting this done and over with but boy is it hard when you're still fighting pretty bad morning sickness..

Who else is getting their glucose tolerance test early??
