Urine test before glucose

I don't remember if I had a urine test before the glucose test when I was pregnant with DD, but when I showed up today for my glucose test they asked for a urine. Turned out, I failed the urine test so they wouldn't even let me do the glucose test. I was told I would hear from my doctor tomorrow with instructions for going forward. Anyone else experience this?

Urine test before glucose

No, only blood for my prior two. I still need to go for this time, but my script is only for bloodwork.
I thought if you had sugar in your urine, it's a reason to send you for a glucose test. I'm guessing they'll send you for the 3 hour...

Re: Urine test before glucose

You failed with what in your urine, glucose? I never had a urine test first, only blood after the drink...and I did the glucose test 3 times.

Urine test before glucose

In 3 glucose tests, I've never had urine tested. That's a new one.

Re: Urine test before glucose

No, I never had a urine glucose test that I am aware of. I'm having the 1 hr blood glucose test on Monday, so we'll see. What did your doctor say?

I just had mine done recently. They asked for urine first as standard protocol. I told them i couldnt go bc I hadnt drank anything but that glucose drink in 2 hours. She said it was fine to skip the urine that day.

Urine test before glucose

I am always asked for a urine sample at all ob visits but I just took the three hr test this morning and they did not ask for urine sample.

Thanks all. I did call the office today and spoke to a nurse. At my last visit my sugar level from my urine sample was 3 which is much higher than normal level. The repeat urine was to check the sugar level and if it was still high they were supposed to do a finger prick blood sugar test. If that was normal I was supposed to be able to do the 1 hour. If not, I would have been put on the GD diet and the 1 hour test would be repeated in 3 weeks.

I only did it once, but no urine test. I mean, they still asked me to pee, but just because that was standard practice for all my OB appointments. As far as I know they didn't do any additional testing that would affect the glucose test. Besides, they had me drink the drink before I came in. So I got there about 15 minutes before the hour was up and they needed to draw blood.

Momma2015, who is your OB? I would live an OB that does these kind of things in office. Maybe for next time...

My OB was Dr. Park at Midtown OBGYN in the city, but she just moved to CA! I was sad to see her go! I'll probably stick with the practice though since they were ALL there at my DD's birth.
