If you failed the 1 hr GD, but passed the fasting

Do you remember your 1 hour numbers?

I have always failed the 1 hour (3X now), but the two times I took the 3 hour, I passed.  My 1 hr numbers were 131 and 140-something last pregnancy.   This time, my 1 hour was 167, which seems high.  I have to take a 2 hour fasting (different OB this time around), and I'm trying to mentally prepare myself for possibly  having to follow the GD diet for 20 weeks.  I will not be suprised if I pass it this early, but wind up failing my 28 week test.

  • It seems almost everyone fails the 1 hour.  I don't remember what my numbers were, but I passed the 3 hour with flying colors.

  • My 1 hour was 132 and I failed the 3 hour.  I don't think that 1 hour number really determines anything about the 3 hour unless you have some extremely high 1 hour number.  GD isn't all that bad at all if you end up having it.  Good luck!
  • Mine was low 140s. I know someone who was that high on the 1hr and passed the 3hr.  Good luck!
  • My  1hr was in the 90's, so I didn't have to do the 3 hour.

     

    Why did they test you so early this time?

    My new OB tests twice as standard testing, so they test everyone at 16 wks.  Last time they tested me early b/c of PCOS.

  • mine was 143 and then I passed the 3hr.

    I think there are alot of mixed feelings about the tests. Some Dr's say to fast before the 1hr and others say not too. To me it would seem like anything you eat before the test would just add a little more sugar to your bloodstream than if you hadn't eaten.

    Goodluck!
