I used the jelly beans for this pregnancy. If you go to http://www.parentsplace.com and click on the midwife link she answers the same question. She says to eat 18 Brach's jelly beans (the regular kind) one hour before having blood drawn. You are supposed to eat them in 2 minutes but I had a hard time doing this. I felt ok after eating them but did feel like I had a huge sugar high. For me, it was much better than drinking the glucola.

Good luck. Hope it works out for you.
