I had an ultrasound at my appt today (34 weeks) and bubs is measuring 7lbs 7ozs already. My obstetrician said that as my 28 week GTT was normal it's possible that I have GD but it hasn't shown up until later than the 28 week mark?
For this reason she's requested that I have the 2 hour test done next Tuesday but I too wasn't told anything about a special diet. Both my obstetrician and the person I spoke to at IMVS when making the appointment told me to fast 12 hours before the appt, can only have water, and that I will be there for 2 hours with a fasting blood test done when I arrive, followed by the drink, another blood test an hour later and another an hour after that!
Am now wondering if I should be eating a high carb diet as i've been recommended to avoid carbs (particularly later in the day) in an attempt to reduce bubs growth.
