NT and Early Glucose Test

mageemaay

Today my hubby and I went to the doctor for the NT test. The ultrasound technician told us right away that the measurement was well within the "normal" range. This definitely took a huge weight off of our shoulders. The heartbeat was 155 bpm and we got to hear that sweet sound for the first time. This made for one emotional mommy-to-be. 

However- before we went for this portion, my doctor wanted me to do an early glucose test. I drank the drink (which really didn't taste as bad as I thought it would) and had my blood drawn. It wasn't until I got home later this afternoon that I felt the aftermath of the glucose drink. I am feeling extremely exhausted (far more than my usual) and don't want to move off of the couch. Has anyone else who has taken the glucose test experienced something like this? I'd love your input.

It's the glucose crash and perfectly normal :-).  Hopefully you don't have to take the 3 hour glucose because that one is worse :-(.  good luck!
