No diabetes/glocula testing?

[eejaydiva 3]

Question, has anyone who's pregnant gotten to skip the glucola test? I had my 6 month checkup last week and doctor was stuck in a delivery, so I saw his nurse practitioner, who I love and trust very much. She said that he had made a note in my file that no glucola test was needed to check for gestational diabetes...and she didn't know why. I haven't heard of any preggo bandster reasons to skip this. Have you guys encountered this? If my doc feels comfortable not checking me for that, I accept and trust his judgement, I just don't know why. He's out of the office for a few days more, so I'm trying to get info in the meantime.

I will be posting this question in a few threads in the hope of getting several answers, so I apologize if you see it more than once.
