28 weeks ( it may just be that you need more water) not anything to do with diabetes. It is a simple test you drink this yucky drink and wait then they take your blood and check the levels.

I was tested at 28 weeks, but I have a friend that was tested early ( 8 weeks ) because she was overweight to begin with and they wanted to rule out diabetes. She was also tested again at 27-28 weeks.

26-28 weeks.

More thirst is normal in pregnancy.

Between 24-28 weeks. At your next appointment the doctor will give you a lab order to do a test.

I just did the one hour at 27 weeks and failed, tomorrow I go in and do the 3 hour at 28 weeks.

Yes your thirst is a sign more of diabetes than pregnancy. I HAD gestation diabetes and before I went in for my test I could drink 3 2ltr bottles of Cherry 7-up. Nothing else would do.
I had my test done my 4th month.so about 16-18 weeks
