A bit nervous...*update...*

[purplebluered]

Tomorrow I have to go down to the hospital for my glucose tolerance test, as they suspect I have gestational diabetes as there's been increasing amounts of glucose in my wee ... hoping that it's just all the choc I'm eating showing up easily

I'm a bit nervous, I dunno why. I quite like the idea of sitting there reading a book for 2 hours but I don't like the idea of having to fast from 11pm onwards tonight (I just had spag hoops on toast and 2 choc hobnobs ) and then only drinking plain water tomorrow and then getting there and having to drink sugary drinks I'll get so hyper I'll tell you that now

Bah, at least it's only a couple of hours, could be worse, could be all day or even overnight, so I should be thankful it's just the morning...

Good luck with it tomorrow, hope you don't get too hyper

Let us know how you get on!

First thing's first, only TWO chocolate hobnobs? Wow I wish I had your willpower, I could eat a whole packet (in one sitting) easy peasy

Anyway, more importantly, good luck for tomorrow hun. I'm sure all will be fine and it's good you're being looked after so well.

There's your excuse for a big ol' takeaway tomorrow night. Having to go without for a few hours takes it toll on a poor pregnant body

Good luck hun, fingers crossed it's just all the sugary treats tainting your wee.
Hope you get a good night's sleep and zzzzzz through most of the fasting time!
All the best,

Hey, good luck for tomorrow, iv just started reading the time travellers wife and its soo confusing so maybe pop into whsmith on the way if you want something TRUELY distracting
Otherwise just good luck

 

[bunnymom1980]

Good luck.

I've got to have a glucose challenge at the beginning of June and I haven'y been given any instructions about fasting.

Is what I'm having the same as what your having?

 

[Tillytots]

Good Luck today hun

I had mine at 29 weeks and those 2 hours went so quick! you'll be fine. The drink is yummy too

Hey thanks everyone, it went fine, I just sat and read a book for 2 hours and hardly noticed the time going...book was by lisa jewell called 31 jewell street, I'm halfway through it now I'm a fast reader I didn't get bored, just slightly hyper from the sugary drink but now I feel really sleepy

bunnymom, they should give you instructions but basically I had to fast from 11pm the night before and only drink plain still water, I just turned up and had first blood test, drank an orangey syrupy kinda sugary drink then sat for 2 hours and had 2nd blood test then that was it!

Now gotta wait for results should be in tomorrow fingers crossed hopefully all is well

Thanks all
