I'm having my sugar test in a little over two weeks. I'll be almost 30 weeks preg.
do you have GD? My sister got it with both of her pregnancies but a strict diet and a little exercise helped her tremendously.

I have had 3 hours test in all pregnancies before (three of them) as I always have big babies (10 1/2 pound), but they always come back normal. Hoping it will be the same this time - already booked in for a 3 hour test when I am 28 weeks (and an extra growth scan at 34 weeks). From what I understand, getting regular exercise really helps both as prevention and treatment, i have heard some women are asked to exercise (e.g. walk) for 10-15 minutes after each main meal. I am trying not to gain any weight until 20 weeks (start BMI 32.5, now 31.7)

GD is one of my biggest worries since it seems like it can be random! I didn't get it when I was overweight and unhealthy with my first... but my mother had it with me when she was Active Duty Military at 20 and only a dainty 105 lbs. I've got my one hour test next month and hope the exercise has paid off.

Good luck with the 3 hour test!

I had GD in my last pregnancy. I was on metaformin, 1000mg I think and just made some changes to my diet, watched the carbs in bread , pasta and potatoes but upped my other veg count and my protein count. I wasn't counting calories but I did drop some weight so after birth I was lighter than when I fell pregnant. However after baby was born that's when I put on weight.
I will be having the gtt test earlier in the pregnancy this time and I guess it's more likely than not it could resurface but have to take it in my stride.
It's better to be tested and have the doctors look after you, don't worry it is manageable and can be well controlled if you look after yourself.

Update: I am now just about 35 weeks. I had my 3 hour glucose tolerance test and the results came back super duper, so nothing to worry about. I have only gained a couple of pounds and baby is estimated to be 5 lbs now by growth scan.

My mom had GD when she was pregnant for me so my risk is increased. I'm trying to be proactive by controlling my gain and working out, but I agree that it seems random from those I know who've had it, so who knows.
