When I was 26 weeks pregnant, the doctor ordered me to go for a glucose tolerance test.
Sisters who are sugar resistant must be on an empty stomach in the morning, water and food cannot be eaten, and at least 8 hours on an empty stomach, arrive at the hospital before 9 o'clock in the morning, because the hospital where I have a maternity examination will no longer do this examination after 9 o'clock. (I don't know why)
There are still a lot of tests to do at 26 weeks of pregnancy, and in my case, my checklist includes blood routine, urine routine, bone density test, and glucose tolerance test.
What is the sugar tolerance made by our pregnant mothers? It is a test method to confirm whether a pregnant woman has gestational diabetes by checking whether a pregnant woman has gestational diabetes, and after taking oral glucose water on an empty stomach, the blood sugar level in the pregnant woman's body is detected, and if an abnormal condition is found, timely treatment is required.
After the outpatient doctor writes the checklist, it's time to pick up the medicine for the glucose tolerance test.
Powdered sugar and water are fully integrated in proportion, it is best to bring a thermos cup at home in advance, prepare 500 ml of warm hot water, in fact, the hospital also has hot water, but it is boiling water will be a little hot.
After stirring the sugar water well, it is 300 ml of liquid. Ask the pregnant mother to drink it within 5 minutes.
The sugar water is a little sweet, and after drinking it, I will go to draw the blood for the first time. A second blood is drawn every hour and a third time every hour. In this way, the sugar tolerance check is done.
Some pregnant mothers said that they were a little disgusting after drinking sugar water, can they drink water while waiting for blood draw? The answer is no! Because drinking water will affect the test results, we only have to endure hard for the baby!
The glucose tolerance test is usually the result in the afternoon, and we must find our own obstetrician as soon as we get the report to see if we have gestational diabetes.
The above are my test results
If the result is abnormal, follow the doctor's instructions and actively cooperate with the doctor for treatment.
I wish everyone a healthy, smart and cute baby rabbit!
