1.  How many failed your 1 hour and passed your 3 hour?

 I failed my 1 hour yesterday.   I take the 3 hour in the morning.

 2.  If you did fail, do you remember your score on the 1st test? 

Mine was 174. 

Ugh, did not need more stress.

Failed 1 hour with 149

Went on to fail the 3 hour.  GL.

I failed the one hour. My blood sugar was 204, so really they could have diagnosed me right then, but because it was barely over 200 and I didn't have any pre-existing risk factors, they had me take the three hour. I passed all four draws.

Failed 1-hr with 155. Passed 3-hour. GL!

NikkiMarie

I had a score of 145 and passed the 3 hour with flying colors!

ivs112

Failed with a 188. Also went on to fail the 3 hour.

Failed the One-Hour, don't know by how much, I was never given an exact number. Then I failed the Three-Hour. No fun.

On a positive note, GD isn't too bad once you get used to it. It is stressful, yes, but once you get used to it, the diet makes your body feel really healthy!

Hopefully you pass your three-hour and don't have to worry about it though! A lot of people fail the 1 and pass the 3. Don't stress yourself our about it just yet.

I failed my hour with a 157 (doc wants it below 120). Took the 3 hour & failed one of the hours. I wasn't diagnosed with GD, but they did have me cut back on my sugar intake as well as having me do fasting blood draws. I believe you have to fail 2 of the 3 hours to be dianosed with GD, but those who fail one of the hours sometimes will flip over to having GD, so they just wanted to keep an eye on things & make sure everything was goin ok. As of Monday's blood work I have been cleared of any sugar issues & they are no longer concerned with GD!!!!

Don't get too stressed out about it though, even if you do happen to have GD, it's not the end of the world. You'll just have to change some things in your diet & whatnot for a little while. In the end your LO will definitely be worth it. GL, hope your test goes well!

Did you guys eat anything before your test? We heard from someone that if you dont eat before you get better results. Everytime someone fails the one hr and passes the three hr they say they ate prior to the 1hr. When I did mine with DS they said " Oh that doesnt matter honey" So I made my appt bright and early and took it on an empty stomach and passed. Funny because i called to schedule my 1hr today for this pregnancy and she says " Be sure not to eat ANYTHING after midnight the night before. Oh and only drink water" Hmmmm so I guess they realized that it DOES matter. Im just saying that might have been the problem....Gl to you all!

I failed my 1-hr with 158.   I passed the 3-hr, but barely.  I failed the first hour draw by 10 and then dropped down to an acceptable range for the 2hr draw and the 3hr draw.   Doctor advised me to watch what I was eating to be on the safe side.  

 

mimimoo09

I went for mine on Sat and they told me not to eat anything before the test.  I still haven't gotten my results yet......

I failed the 1 hour with a 131 ( my Dr. wants the number to be 130 or lower) I went on to pass the 3 hour with no problems at all.  Passed all 4 draws!

1. I failed my 1 hour with a 138, they would have liked to have seen a 130. My birthday was the day before the (rescheduled) testing, so my SO had planned all these great "pregnant happy" meals (loads of carbs, sugars, sweets, etc)... so because of this, they offered to retest my 1 hour which I did this morning. I'll know tomorrow if I have to take the 3 hour on Monday.

My test was at 1:15 so I had eggs for um... brunch - I way slept in  with milk and a late lunch afterwards.  This time they said no food after 10 pm and only water sips as needed.  I have to be there at 8:45 am.

I failed the one hour with a 142.  I passed the three hour though. 

SDKelli

I failed my 1 hour with a level of 150 but went on to pass my 3 hour. Not sure what the exact levels were.

Good luck!

ENev

Failed my one-hour by A LOT - 220-something - forgot to fast and had a Fiber One bar about an hour before I drank the drink - stupid, stupid. They were going to diagnose me right away but I pleaded with them because of the food I ate. I passed the three-hour.

4everDsgirl

i failed the first test....and I can't remember what my score was, but then I also failed the second test...but if you fail the 2nd just know that it really isn't that bad...I feel a lot better about my diet now that I am cautious about what I'm eating!

jessicali1432

I failed the one hour with a 170. Passed the three hour!

huh?

library lady

I failed the one hour a 280, I hen proceeded o fail all four draws of the three hour. ?Best of luck to you, GD is challenging, especially with altering medications, but it is not unmanageable. ?

cranguard

Failed the 1 hour and passed the 3 hour with flying colors.  The lady taking my blood said that she's no doctor but since my last one was lower than my fasting 1st draw she was pretty sure I was in the clear! 

SusieQ1982

I failed the 1 hour but I'm from Canada and we measure it differently. For example, my passing number after the 2 hour test was 6.2
