Glucose Test

I took my glucose test when I was 5 months. . I am going to take another one at my next appt. I will be 7 months. Has anyone taken it twice before? & did they tell you why?.

Ive done the glucose test twice, both came back normal. The doctor said the reason i had to do it twice coz i have a family history of diabetes and they wanna make sure i dont have it. So there must be a reason why they want to check you twice. Good luck :)

Due to the fact my previous babies were large my doc had me take the first one early on. It said my levels were to high, so after a special diet I took the 3hr one and it came back fine.  She did tell me that I would be taking another 3hr one by 28 weeks just to be sure. So I'll be going in Monday for that one with my fingers crossed that it will come back fine. They are just double checking so don't be nervous :)

I'm pregnant with baby #4 and with all my babies I've only taken the glucose test 1 time. But every dr is different. I'm sure if anything was wrong they would have told you though.

My doctor told me you can develop it anytime during your pregnancy so they probably just wanna check to make sure everything is still good.

Take it again that is. Are they giving you the 3 hour one next?

I just took one. My Dr said if my numbers weren't good enough, whatever that means, I'd have to take it
