betso, lol
I dont mind you refer somebody to me, but unknowingly, you have insulted somebody else. If it is Las Vegas, you need to ask Hypersexual and sir steve, before I say anything. They are my Vegas "guru"..lol My answer to this Q is A You do blood glucose during 24-28 weeks, not at first visit, I think !!

Ups, sorry!
Never meant to insult Hypersexual or Sir Steve as they are surely very knowledgeable concerning this topic. And... you guys are right. A is the answer. Sugar is tested only in urine in the first prenatal diagnostics routine.

guys the answer is B.................Coz as Goodnews correctly said we do it only in high risk cases...like HIV...like HCV Ab etc
Also keep looking for indications for first time Blood Sugar check. It is not always 24 to 28th month......... Age > 25 Previous child > 4000g F Hx of DM Obesity Previous still born child Previous child with congenital defect recurrent spontaneous abortion |
