    I didn't have to drink that sugary drink. I had a very specific meal I had to eat an hour before the test. I can't quite remember what was in the meal- I think it was 2 eggs, 2 slices of whole wheat toast, a specific amount of juice (I can't remember what kind of juice or how much), and a specific amount of milk.

    I didn't get to pick a flavor but was given orange. I was real worried about having trouble getting it down but as it turned out I had no problem. I did it in the morning, after fasting, and I didn't mind the taste at all. I do have a sweet tooth and I like orange flavor, maybe that helped.

    I had to do the test and I picked the orange also, I wasnt aloud to eat anything at all the night before or a couple hours after taking it and I ended up having the gestational diabetes anyway its kinda a thing that gets passed so if your mom had it there is a better chance you will... Good luck and hope everything turns out great for you.

    I was told to put mine in the fridge and drink it cold. Apparently it helps with the flavor. Couldn't tell from my end.

    I don't have to have that test until August, but it sounds like I'll have a problem because I don't like sweet things and I don't like orange soda either. (love oranges and oj, but not the soda)
