    I failed my 1hr too.

    How can you take the 3hr tomorrow if they just called you?  I was told to eat more carbs for three days prior to the appt...

    Good luck! ?I failed my one hour too (but passed the extended test). ?Bring some magazines or a book with you because you'll be doing a lot of hanging out during the test. :) ?

    My doctor has the same directions as your doc afg...but I've read a lot of girls on the bump who haven't had those directions from their docs.

    Good luck! I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes but I'm sure you'll do fine.

    I got the news that I failed mine this morning - by 4 pts.  I'm scheduled for a week from Friday and need to fast after Midnight.

     

    Good Luck tomorrow!

    NKufferman i only failed by 4 points too... i said since it was my first time taking the test there should be a curve... my doctor just laughed and said come pick up your script! haha

    I found out this AM that I failed mine too but only by one point - ugh!  I am also going tomorrow morning and specifically asked about eating increased carbs for 3 days before (based on earlier posts today) and my doctor's office doesn't do that.  I am hoping since I only failed by one point that it won't be an issue but I am still nervous.  4 blood-draws probably won't be that much fun ;(

    good luck, I have my 3 hour on June 3rd...kinda bummed I have to worry about it til then but oh well I am sure it will be fine. I was so upset when I first found out but have luckily gotten a lot of support from my mom and husband so I am feeling better about it.
