I didn't think it was that bad honestly, but if you throw it up they will make you retest it, if you throw it up a 2nd time they'll probably reschedule.

Get orange flavored, that's the best one that doesn't taste too bad. It taste like flat soda.

i didn't think it was all that bad either. It just made me feel woozy for about 30 minutes and then I was fine.

Everyone said that the orange stuff tastes better than the cola one. I never had to do it. The topic never came up with my doctor and i'm guessing since i'm already 36 weeks I won't have to.

if you're doctor doesn't do the glucose test then he's a dumbsh*t lol.

When I had it done my little man got the hiccups.

Lol...I had the orange and it actaully tasted like hot, watered down kool aid. They told me that I had 15 minutes to finish the drink...It wasn't that big, but because it was hot..It seemed huge.

I wondered if they had different flavors..But they didn't give me any options...

After I drank it I had to wait an hour and my baby was going craaazy...I'm guessing there's lots of glucose in the drink...Cuz my angel was literally throwing herself against each rib cage!!

It's not that bad...Don't worry...The worst part is the needle!!
