30wks getting tested for Gestational Diabetes tomorrow

[FirstTM2020]

Hi 😊

I am being tested for GD tomorrow, I mentioned to the midwife how much I am peeing, up every hour during the night and feel like all I do is pee. So thirsty beyond belief also, have experienced blurry vision on a couple of occasions which lead to a migraine which is not common for me.

I don't have any risk factors for GD, anybody else had these symptoms and been diagnosed with GD? Just curious as I don't feel unwell just absolutely shattered with being up all night peeing

I also have a test tomorrow at 9am. And pee an awful lot in the night, so much that I’ve been trying to limit how much I drink in the evening and then I wake up in the morning with a dehydrated, almost hungover feeling which can’t be good either. My brother has diabetes so I’m considered at risk. Good luck with your test!

I peed all the time while I was pregnant. I had risk factors so was tested (often) and didn't have it. Everything might be fine.

@Birdy1991 Also 9am for me tomorrow... i feel like im being tortured peeing this much. Its honestly constant.. i fully expected to pee more frequently but this is just wild i could honestly pee every 15 minutes and like you have been limiting fluids to try and see if it helps and it doesn't its equally the same. Its awful i feel so drained and my poor partner is disrupted all night too woops !!

@amazedmummy aw thats positive hopefully its all good !! I'm a high risk pregnancy anyway and will be induced at 37 weeks, just don't want the extra worry, but what will be will be 🤷🏽‍♀️ xx
