I don’t know if I want to take it or not I am 21 weeks I be 25 weeks when I take the test but I have heard bad things about it and it’s really not good for the baby so I don’t know whether I should take it or take it my doctors letting me not fast I just can’t eat nothing sweet before the appointment so that’s a good thing but I’m not sure whether I should taken or not because I’m really not in the mood to be throwing up and stuff and harm my baby

The risks of not doing it and having untreated gestational diabetes are far greater than any risk associated with the test. It's perfectly safe.
You should 100% take it. It is not that bad. And like Jessica said, the benefits are much much greater.
I was a little afraid when I did it with my first. But it’s not bad and I will do whatever I can to ensure my baby is healthy. If that means drinking a gross drink, then I’m cool with that
If you’re worried about the drink itself, try the fresh test. I used that one with my first & it’s super easy to get down, tastes like lemonade!

Just sharing so you know that you do have options while still testing to ensure both you & baby are healthy! 🥰
Ask for the Fresh Test, which someone linked above. I ordered mine through my doctor. Healthier and tastier
