@jacob1996 It’s like an overly sweetened McDonald’s orange soda. It’s really not bad. Other than being bored waiting during the 3 hr there’s not much to say. I didn’t get nauseated or anything. I would highly recommend not skipping this testing as the outcomes of untreated diabetes is far worse...

@mousa I never really had it with either pregnancy, only threw up a handful of times and iron supplements caused a number of those. It was more queasiness/food aversions and some nausea, but never severe or to the point that I couldn’t eat or drink. It’s fine if you don’t have it, doesn’t...
