We already have 1 of each, so we don't really have a preference. I was given the lovely glucose test early because I had gestational diabetes with DD, but I didn't have it with DS.
Well, I failed the 1 hour and no I have to take the horrid 3 hour. Now, DH is convinced if I do have gestational diabetes this time it's because we're having another girl. Only time will tell.
Re: DH is convinced #3 is a girl!
We'll definitely be finding out. I've never been good at waiting for surprises. I'm the person that gives people gifts early and tries to get hints from other people about gifts I'm getting!
Wow you took the 1 hour at 9 weeks? Is that because you had it before? I didn't take it until 30-ish weeks I think (last time).
I have a theory that whatever you think it is, it's always the opposite! Haha, who really knows though. I'm with you-- I can't wait to know!
Yes, they gave me the test early because of my prior history. I go to a practice with 8 doctors and this particular one seems to be more of an alarmist (apparently it was necessary). When I was pregnant with DS, I requested the test around 16 weeks, but only because I was having dizzy spells. Normally, I don't get it until 28 weeks.
Ah, well good to know early then, and good your doctors are on top of it!
