I have GD with this bub but I didn't notice any symptoms. I am glad I had the test, as painful as it is I would rather have it and treat it then not know that I had it and have it left untreated.

My sister had GD with her 1st bub and it wasn't picked up until a week before bub was born and she was almost 11lb, she also had it with her last bub and it was picked up n treated and that bub was almost 8lb. So a big difference in size.

I personally wouldn't feel comfortable not having the test. If you don't want the test and your midwife is happy with that its up to you. I just thought I would share from my POV.
