Glucose tolerance test?

[november23J_S_N]

I get tested this thursday I am 28 weeks along and I was wondering what do they do and how long does it? Also any tips to pass it?

Some people say it's bad it ***** etc..
but for me it went pretty well besides feeling a little light headed after.
I couldn't eat before going in . (So that's why it's best to go in the morning .) I had to drink the fruit punch kind under 3 minutes . Didn't taste bad . Tasted normal lol
Then wait an hour in the waiting room & then got my blood drawn from my right arm . I had mine done at 28weeks. I'm now 31 weeks & haven't been told about my results which I'm wondering why ....

I did the 2 hour one and I wasn't allowed to eat or drink anything 8 hours before or during when I got there they pricked my finger and got blood that way then I drank the glucose drink I got fruit punch had to drink it in 5 mins waited an hour they took my blood from my left arm and then waited another hour and took blood from my right arm I never felt light headed it didn't make me feel weird or anything I was more tired then anything lol its not as bad as some people say I had a good experience! Good luck !
