Glucose test today

I had my glucose test this morning - bloods, drink, 2 hour wait, second bloods.

The drink was fine, as I've seen others say it was like a capri sun, the after taste wasn't great but it went away with water. Apparently the glucose drink they used to use was more like a thick syrup, where as this one was literally just like a juice.

I haven't had any symptoms from it - no nausea, sweating, upset tummy etc. Just feel normal.

Does this mean anything? Like my body has handled the glucose well etc. Or is it just one of those thing?

I'd like to know if the people who felt rubbish after/during it then went on to get diagnosed with GD, or visa versa.

Hey! I had my glucose test at around 26 weeks- no nausea, sweating, upset tummy and felt completely normal. Two weeks later got a call to say I had GD 😅

I felt fine and also have GD but not sure if there’s a connection lol. I got the test results the next day.

Same here. Felt completely normal and also have GD.

I had mine on Monday, felt fine, actually enjoyed it, got GD 🫠

I felt absolutely fine with my first GTT first pregnancy and got diagnosed, currently sat here with my second pregnancy having just had the test. Hoping it’s negative.

I'm still waiting on my results, haven't heard anything yet.

Just heard back, all clear, no GD

happy for you!!

Yay glad for you!!

Young mum

Hi guys,

I’m just wondering if there’s any other young parents that are getting further into their pregnancy and like, genuinely just clocking that I’m gonna be responsible for a baby and I don’t know everything their is to know about baby’s I feel like I’m gonna be so useless and accidently be the worst mum in the world 🫣

Does anyone else feel like this? Or felt like this? I’m 19 and genuinely have so much anxiety about this now I’m 20 weeks lol

So annoyed, dog jumped on me :( now I’m anxious

I have a big dog and she NEVER jumps.. today I came home and my mum was with me visiting and my dog must have just got over whelmed and she jumped and ended up scratching my lower back,

with that I’ve bent backwards almost and stretched my lower belly and it didn’t hurt as such just felt like tha shock ligament pain but ofc I haven’t actually bent that far since being pregnant and now I just feel anxious really and just need some reassurance. It only happened about 15 mins ago and I have felt baby a little since

But why is there always something to worry about!😭

Anemia

So my results from the glucose test were good (that’s positive) but It looks like I have anemia. Someone in the same situation? Waiting to see what my doctor says, but any tips would be appreciated.
