Hi, I'm just curious about this as my DH friends were just chatting about baby and pregnancy related stuff with me, and they mentioned the glucose tolerance test which I believe is fasted . My 28 week app is a while away yet but when I was booked in for it no mention was made of being tested for GD and it wasn't mentioned in the letter either.
My DH is of South Asian heritage and so are his friends, none of them had bmi over 30. I had a look on the NHS website and it seems that I don't meet any of the criteria. So does this mean I won't be tested? I am Caucasian, had underweight bmi at start of pregnancy, first baby, no family history etc. Just wondering if other similar women to me also didn't get told about the GD test?
I do plan on emailing or calling midwife to double check 😊
