I'm 26wks. I guess they have you do it between 24-28wks.

That is awsome you could take it home, and chill it. I remember having to go to the hospital where I had my daughter. Sit there for 3hrs. I don't remember the flavor, but it was super nasty! I go next Wednesday. I'm not looking forward to it. Kinda wanna barf just thinking about it. Yuck! Don't you have to stay there until the take the blood?

Good to know - I have mine in two weeks and I'm scared! Lol I also have orange... it's in the pantry but I plan to put it in the fridge the night before so it's cold. Gah, I don't wanna do it! Lol

Okay update- drink was orange flavored I had it chilled first. It was actually pretty tasty, made my mouth tingle a bit. Didn't make me sick at all and had my blood drawn! Will get the results as early as tomorrow!
