Glucose tolerance test

Anyone took glucose tolerance test already? Can please let me know what should I prepare? 😅 i read in some post you could vomit the moment u finish the drink and have to come back another day😳😳 My gynae asked me to take when I reach 24 weeks.

The liquid doesn’t taste that horrible, it’s just very sweet. Totally manageable to finish it in under 5 minutes. Take deep breaths between sips, relax and don’t think about vomiting. Also try not to move around too much in between tests. Heard there’re people who failed the test not because they vomited, but they fainted from feeling weak / dizzy due to overnight fasting. The nurses at my gynae clinic insisted that I sat down and wait there throughout. Good luck, mummy!
