Ladies who are in 3rd tri or who have had a glucose test, please come in.

My OB scheduled my glucose test for 3 weeks - but I'll only be 25 weeks at that point.  Does that seem early to you?  I thought it was normally done around 28 weeks.  If it makes a difference, I am doing the non-fasting version.

  • I was at higher risk for GD, so my OB tested me at both 20 and 28 weeks. Are you having another test later on as well?

  • Mine was after 24 weeks, which I think/thought was normal.

  • I got mine done at 27 weeks. I'm pretty sure my OB said it should be done anytime btwn 24 and 28 weeks.

  • My new office did it a couple weeks earlier than my old one. I think I was 26 this time instead of 28.

  • I think mine was done around 28 weeks, but based on other's responses, it definitely looks like it varies :)

  • It really depends on your risk. Two of my friends had theirs done before their 12 week appt. I had mine at the usual 28 weeks.

  • That seems like a normal time to do it. Just be prepared though, a lot of people fail the non-fasting test, just to pass the fasting test, so if you do it doesn't really mean anything. I don't know why doctors even do that one anymore...

  • Thanks for the input.  It's on a Monday, and I typically don't eat a ton on Mondays before dinner due to a crazy schedule, so I am hoping I will pass!  I'm glad to see that there is a range of weeks.

  • I'll keep my FX that you pass the first time, so you don't have to come back and retest. :)

  • Mine was around 28 weeks. I did a non fasting test and passed. My midwife told me to eat a normal, healthy breakfast but go easy on sugars. I had scrambled eggs, whole wheat toast, and a glass of milk.

  • Thanks.  Are there any warning signs that you have it?

    From what I've read, some women have symptoms and some don't. I think most don't have symptoms. So you'll just have to wait for the test results unfortunately. :(
