Diabetes 3 times blood test

Hi, I’m informed by the gynae that during 5th months plus I’ve to do the diabetes test which required to draw blood for 3 times. Can I know is this an important test to do during pregnancy ? Or is it compulsory ?

I did the test too. Diagnosed with Gestational Diabetes during pregnancy & it opened my mind to watch my diet for the health of my LO. She was born healthy and strong :) 6 weeks post partum, I took the test again and was cleared from diabetes..
