    I thought it was fine but I did get a horrid headache and sugar crash afterwards - had a sleep for a few hours and drank heaps of water trying to get rid of the headache! The kiddo loved the sugar rush I think - jumped and pushed and wiggled like mad not long after I drank it! No GD for me which is great.

    I loved the drink and ended up craving it for the rest of my pregnancy. Lemonaid just wouldn't cure the craving.

    Well, that drink that I so loved has given me a glucose reading of 7.9 grrrr. Normal range being 4-8.

    The midwife didnt say I needed to, just that I cant have any sugar or refined foods - and I was really looking forward to going to the pancake parlour for my birthday on Saturday night....

    i didnt think it was too bad, but halfway through it started to get a bit sweet and coz she made me drink it so fast it made me feel a little icky (plus i hadnt eaten ) i dont know if i had a bad reaction to it but that night had a bit of a belly ache and the runs but other than that everything was ok and my test came back normal
