Sugar in urine tests but two negative diabetes tests?

I had traces of sugar in my urine earlier and told them I had been drinking more fresh juice etc and they said it could be due to that drink being high in sugar. Not sure if that helps😂

Have you been testing your own sugar levels too with the finger pricks?

no they haven't advised me to do that yet, but I did order a bunch of the urine strips from Amazon and I noticed that just after I've had dinner it'll show sugar then after a few hours it won't show any...so I don't know how she can say it isn't to do with what I'm eating atm, she said food and drink have nothing to do with it. I think next time I'll just fast beforehand or something if it's in the morning and see if it still comes as sugary 🤔

that makes sense! My friend is a midwife and she said even if you've had loads of chocolate or something the night before it can affect the urine test so I'm confused

Might be worth ordering a blood sugar testing kit from amazon. That's what I did because I had GD in previous pregnancy and my GTT has been normal this time so I've been keeping an eye on my fasting levels and also my 2 hr post meal levels. That will give you more info x

Thank you 🙏🏼 they called today and said they are going to give me some of the finger prick test things to monitor for 5 days and see what my results are, they are going to explain more tomorrow x
