What is a Glucose Test???? 🤔

Question

I keep seeing you guys post about taking Glucose Tests. What are they? I haven't heard of this... I'm in week 29.

Answer

Most docs that I know of have you take this test between 24-28 weeks.  Most everyone I know has done it but maybe it depends on the doctor.

Answer

Maybe they don't do it here in Sweden??

Answer

It's a really gross test where you drink this artificial sugar drink and they draw labs about an hr later to see if you may have gestational diabetes. Your OB hasn't mentioned this to you? I had mine at 25 weeks.

Answer

Its to test for gestational diabetes. You drink a super sugary drink, and get your blood drawn
