I had my glucose test at my week 24 appointment. And no, I don't think that 26 lbs is too much. Everyone is different. If you were getting close to 50 lbs then I would worry. I read that btw weeks 24 and 26 the average weight gain is 24 lbs.
I just did my glucose test last week and im now almost 28 weeks. I think it vairys from doc to doc.
ur wait gain is not that much. its ok.
Hi,
visiting here from Feb due date forum.
I had my glucose test at like 6 weeks pregnant (as soon as my dr. knew I was pregnant) - I am high risk for diabetes....
Don't worry. No such thing as testing too early.... All will be fine.

The GD test is done anytime between 24 and 28 weeks. I got it done this weekend ... so I too was 25 w 5 d. I think its okie... as long as its done between the 24-28 week period.
don't freak out with the weight issue... a lot also depends on ur pre-pregnancy weight.. but to keep ur weight from increasing a lot.. try to nibble on fruits / dry fruits(nuts) thru the day...but don't stay hungry at all.. no no no...
Well, I just had my glucose test done yesterday and I am 27.5 weeks. So it may seem a little early. But if you are concerned you should really just ask the nurse or your doctor and I am sure that they will be happy to tell you. I just know that all doctors do everything very differently. And about the weight gain I would not be too worried about, as long as your doctor has not brought it up to you. 26 pounds is within the range of 24.5 weeks and it depends on if you were under-weight when you got pregnant. Everyone is different so don't freak out!!!! :)
