Glucose Screening

Hey everyone! I had my first 1 hour glucose screening when I was about 12 weeks pregnant due to my weight. I passed that screening. I’m currently 27 weeks pregnant and I have another 1 hour glucose screening tomorrow. Anyone in a similar situation, did you ever pass the first screening and then fail a second?

I also had to do an early glucose screening...I failed the 1 hour by a few points but passed the 3 hour test. When my doctor and I discussed the 27 week screening, I opted to skip the 1 hour altogether and just go right to the 3 hour. Talk to your doctor about your numbers from the first screening, and see what their thoughts/your options are for the second. If your numbers were under the range, but still high-ish, maybe just ask if you can skip ahead to the 3 hour...
