2nd Trimester

??? For those that failed the 1hr glucose

I had my 1 hr test done last week and failed.  I'm just wondering how many of you ladies failed the 1 hour and went on to pass the 3 hour test????

I was tested early, not given a reason why, and now I'm getting myself all worked up about the possibility of GD.

Forgive me if this has been asked a million times, I tried the bump search, but it sucks.

Thanks!

  • there is nothing you can do. your body is either insulin resistant or not. This is my 2nd go with GD and it's not so bad and it's in the best interest of your baby.

    Good Luck.

  • I got my first 1-hour test at 11 weeks due to my age and I passed it.  I got my second 1-hour test on April 10th and I failed.  I took my 3-hour test on April 21st and I passed with flying colors.  The 3-hour test is miserable but most women who take it go on to pass it.
  • I failed my 1-hour test two weeks ago, and took the 3-hour test last Thursday.  It wasn't fun, but I passed all parts of that test.  The majority of people who fail the 1-hour test will pass the 3-hour challenge.  Just follow the instructions for the days before the test (eating 150g of carbs, etc), and make sure you fast for 10-12 hours before the test begins.  And remember that if you have GD, it isn't the end of the world...you will modify your diet and go on to have a healthy baby!
