Glucose Test

Y’all were SO dramatic about this… I was waiting for this test to be disgusting & was so anxious about it. All for it to taste like barely flat Orange Fanta.

If you’re also nervous about the group B strep test swab at 36 weeks, you can also stop worrying about that. :) people just like to complain about shit on the internet.

It’s not that easy for everyone. Personally, I have suffered with HG with all three pregnancies. Fasting makes the nausea allot worse. I vomit every day still. The drinks are very thick and sweet. I always end up having to retake my glucose test from puking. It’s not just the taste of the drink. It’s the entire experience that can be extremely miserable and hard to get through. I’m very happy for you that it was easy, but don’t be so quick to judge everybody please.

Yes, it can be unpleasant for some people, but if you're doing ok digestively at this point, it's not that big of a deal.

I got fruit punch. I thought it tasted great! The sugar high was wild after though lol.

The fruit punch tasted like red Gatorade. There was a sugar high after and felt fatigued after the crash but it was really not bad. I would just have a high protein snack after and ice water which helped with the fatigue

Early gender tests

Has anyone used the peekaboo early gender blood test??
I did a sneak peek at 6 weeks (very rushed and in a bathroom I share with my husband) and it came back boy. I wasn’t convinced I didn’t contaminate it so I bought a peekaboo.

Peekaboo came back as a girl result at 6 weeks 3 days.

So now I’m the fool who paid $270 to be right where I started. Is one less accurate than the other? I mean I could’ve contaminated the boy result but the peekaboo may have been too early without enough fetal dna?? Ugh I want a girl!! I have two boys 3.5 / 12 months. Idk if I can handle another little boy in such quick succession haha

Pregnacare Max Warning

Just to warn anyone who is taking or planning to take this supplement…

I was cautiously optimistic, as I’ve read the reviews and a lot of people say it changed their cycle, delayed ovulation, etc.

After a series of miscarriages and taking a long break, my cycles were finally back to how they were before, I’ve had loads of CM every month, etc. Until I started on this prenatal… First few weeks on them and my CM dried up! I’ve had barely anything during my fertile window too, which we all know can affect the likelihood of conception.

I’m sure this is a great supplement for many, but be aware.
