    yeah i reckon if you arent comfy with the decision 100% go for an offline test; that way you know if you are dealing with anything IYKWIM and can maybe keep on top of any possible anxiety that might come from NOT knowing ITMS.

    Thanks so much for the info guys, I think the offline test is a good idea for me to consider, not now as it still stresses me too much, but maybe in a week or two, as it's something that is sitting there in the back of my mind, though small, it is taunting me a tad.

    Skye, I'd really appreciate that! What are they exactly, how are they used?

    ETA I'm aware that sugar doesn't cause diabtetes...my understanding of GD and the reason for me cutting down on sugars is, as I understood it, the body passes excess sugar (glucose from the breaking down of foods, especially high GI foods) onto the bub through the placenta with GD, causing bub to grow fatser and bigger?
