"As a pediatrician, I am constantly guiding families as they navigate the many stages of parenting, even before the babies come. When it comes to the glucose challenge, many pregnant women tell me how they dread the test, not because of the results, but because of the test itself! While I reassure them that the test is very important for the health of them and their baby, I am so happy to tell them about an option that is safe, effective, and actually TASTES good! This way, they can go into the test with faith in its importance and quality, and without the dread of the process!" - Emily Bruckner Krasnow, MD
