So i get to have the GBS test done on wed... just wondering ppl's opinion on them I guess ↓

the gestational diabities test? where you have to drink the drink? its easy not a big deal drink isnt that bad, but i was quite nauseated afterwards. it gave me the craps ↑ |
it was no biggie - I did the 1 hr one and it was just like a 250ml bottle of flat lemonade ↑ |
my drink just tasted like sprite.. mountain jew. whatever u call it over there. it was even fizzy =D ↑ |
Mine tasted like orange soda with a hell of alot of sugar. My doctor actually gave it to me to take home and said to put it in the refrigerator because it tastes better. And remember back to when I had to have the test done with my son it did taste alot better cold. ↑ |
its quick just drink it down, i did it in like 5 gulps, its not that bad, but i did feel sick after it lol mine tasted like over powered orange gatoraide or coolaid, but thicker ↑ |
mine was cold but not fizzy, but some are and they come in all flavors but i don't think you can choose lol ↑ |
I thought the GBS test was for Group B strep??? If so - no big deal. If you have it, they give you antibiotics before you deliver so you don't pass it to the baby. To test you they just swab the vagina and rectum on the outside. It's painless:) They usually tell you the results at your next appointment. How far along are you? ↑ |
hahah lol yes it is the Group B strep test lol
i just had mine done its just a cotton swab and its quick like 2 seconds and then your done, im waiting on my results, and if i have it they just give you some antibiotics and an IV when you deliver! ↑ |
wow mara we are all dorks lol ↑ |
Mine tasted like nasty orange soda. I wanted to throw it up because I didn't like it at all. I held my nose and drunk it as fast as I could lol. ↑ |
lol oh god mara im a dork. i just assumed and im not sure why then everyone just followed suit ↑ |
The group B strep test...
I did it yesterday.. Here you do it yourself at home than take the test the pathology... it was simple.. ↑ |
yeh meagan.. same here.. they give you the little test thing.. u go into the bathroom.. do it urself.. give it to the lady.. and she sends it away for testing. ↑ |
When I was pregnant with Mason they did it though... But that was a different doctor, different hospital.. ↑ |
all they do is swab the inside of ur cooch real quick and send it to see if your body has produced group b strept or not. its very comon and can come and go throughout pregnancy. like mara said they just give u antibiotics at delivery, and thats why they do it so close is b.c it can come and go so they have a better chance of knowing. no biggie though ↑ |
LOL....okay yeah. Yeah all they do is a quick swab no biggy ↑ |
