Multiples

When did you have your glucose test?

Mine is scheduled for this Tuesday (oh, joy) and I will be just shy of 25 weeks.  When I had my singletons, I think I was more in the 26-28 week range.  Does the difference in weeks matter?  I vaguely remember an OB saying something about doing it earlier with twins.

I know I could definitely still pass it (I have never failed it before), but I definitely considered asking to go straight to the awful 3 hour one.  My doctor's office is an hour away and I would rather not have to drive back again for a re-take.

  • Week 29.  I think with ds I had it around 25 weeks.

  • Week 24 and again at week 28. That's normal for multiples.

  • 16wks because I had mild GD my first pregnancy. I failed the 1hr screen by a few points so I chose to go straight to the GD diet instead of doing the 3hr screen.

  • Around 25 weeks. I was given the slip and told to go in between 24 and 28 weeks, I believe. I already knew that I would have it since I had it with my singleton as well. With my singleton I found out around 18 weeks since I had been on Metformin to regulate cycles when we conceived and she wanted to check it early to see about taking me off of the meds.

  • Because I started out overweight before getting PG, they had me do one between 11-12 weeks which I passed and again between 24-28 weeks. I did it around 27 weeks, I think.

  • I've been informed mine will be at 24 weeks... because she gives me the syrup aty next appointment, and I'll drink it for the one after that.
  • Around 26w I think. It was the same general time frame for both my singleton and the twins. No history and passed both times.

  • I had my first one at 16 weeks due to already being insulin resistant and on Metformin....MFM took me off the medicine and had me take the 1 hour...which I failed...I then got to take the 3 hours, which I passed...and I get to redo the 3 hour at my 24 week appointment, which is this month.  I am not sure if I pass again if I will have to retake it or not.
