Failed my one hour glucose test

Just got the call and have to go in on Wed. AM for the three hour test.  Did this happen to anyone else?  How did things turn out for you?

I failed my one hour one but passed the 3 hour one.  Good luck.

I failed my 1 hr and my 3 hr by only 2 pts. I had to go to diabetes training classes and now have to watch what I eat and test my insulin 4 times a day. I was pretty upset about it at first and now it is not so bad. Good luck!

I failed both the one and three hour tests by a few points.  I wasn't considered to be in the high risk category for GD - they attributed it to the triplet pregnancy.

I had to modify my diet to reduce carbs, keep track of what I ate and monitor my glucose level.  That lasted for about 2 weeks until my doctor realized that I really could eat what I wanted to and my glucose was always fine.  After those 2 weeks, all I did was cut back on the apple juice I was drinking.  I remember eating a ton of potatoes and an ice cream sundae one night and I was still below the level I needed to be.

Good luck!

I had gd.  I was a little overweight when I got pregnant but never have problems with diabetes.  I didn't get it till about 26 weeks.  I had to do the prick test 4 times a day.  Around 2 weeks before I delivered the levels weren't able to be controlled by diet and I had to take insulin daily.  It was fine then.  I delivered my girls at 36 weeks and 3 days. They are perfectly healthy and the gd was gone days after delivering.

 Good luck!
