So my acupuncturist thinks there is an alternative to the GTT (which in her opinion is dangerous to the developing baby because of the huge sugar hit - note: "her" opinion). She said I should be able to do a POAS test weekly/fortnightly and get the same result. She said that's what she and women her age did when they were pregnant (so, 20 years ago).

Does anyone know anything about this? I'll assume the GTT is considered by the medical profession to be a more accurate test. But I've always wondered about whether it just captures a moment in time, if that makes sense. And ... I presume if you don't have much sugar and then have the GTT it could well give an inaccurate picture.

I'm definitely keen to go the POAS route if it's still available. Any advice welcome, thanks
