GTT

Hello I’m 28+2 days pregnant and just went to my midwife appointment, when she mentioned how did my glucose test go, in response I said I haven’t had one I’ve never heard anything from the hospital or doctors? Making me worried cause I know your supposed to have the test between 26 - 28 weeks , so she just said leave it with me then when I’ve checked on badger note they booked me in but not until im 30 + 4, anyone experienced a late test? Just worrying.

I was told I needed to have one at my 28 week appointment they have booked me in for when I'm 30 +4 as well x

I was told at 27 weeks I didn’t need it and then at 31 weeks that I did need it! So I did it at 31 weeks and it came back positive. If you’re worried I’d maybe push them to do it sooner as I was pretty annoyed even thought the diabetes woman said I was enough over the threshold it wasn’t just because I did the test later🙄 you can also decline it. They should give you a reason as to why they want to do it (for me it was BMI over 30).

You can have one up until 36 weeks, I had two in my last pregnancy one of which was later on in the 30s

I’ve just rang to see if I could get the appointment push forward since il be over 30 weeks and they’ve came back with there fully booked until mid March but the test can be done until 32 weeks doesn’t fill me with much hope tbh, il be a constant worry until then x

@Codie have you got symptoms to make you worry? Most people don't have them, only of high risk for certain reasons.

@Ruth just my BMI being over 30 it’s 31 x
