    Wow what a strange response from a midwife!! I much rather my midwife who doesn't insist you have the test, at least thats better than doing the test, tricking the result and maybe not getting good care? My midwife offers the use of a finger pr!ck test for a few days to test your sugar levels instead of doing the test, if she thinks that you are showing symptoms of GD in the first place. Surely that would be a better option than to tell your patients to "trick" the test?

    Everyone else has given great advice, so I will just say I am praying it comes back negative and you get the homebirth you want!!!!!
