How Did I Fail?!

in May 2011 Moms

My OB just called and said my sugar was 137! Gah... Why why why? I do not want to go fast and get poked some more...

This sucks. I almost passed out the last time and the nurse was really rough. I realize that I am bring whiny but today I just dont care. Crying

Whats the normal range for your sugar? Was I over by alot?

    Sorry you failed it.  I don't know what the normal range is but I passed mine last Friday with a 124.

    I don't know how you failed! Mine was 135 and I passed. Maybe 135 was the passing point?! The nurse who took my blood said that I probably shouldn't have had a waffle with peanut butter for breakfast because it has enough sugar to screw up your test. Oops. Embarrassed

    I think the failing score for my office is 139.  I failed by 156 but passed the 3 hour.

    I would ask if you can retake the one hour before the 3 hour. I barely failed 136, passing at my office is 130. And the nurse gave me the option, she also said be sure not to eat any potatoes the night before because they can throw things off, as well as lots of carbs. Even though it's not a fasting test, certain things can cause someone to "barely" fail. I retook mine this morning and just didn't eat anything after 8 last night, and only ate a cheese stick for breakfast, instead of my normal turkey sandwich, I know strange breakfast.

    It really depends on the office and the doctor, between 130 and 140 is the normal cut off.

    that is passing  in my office (139 is cutoff).  When you go in for 3 hour, ask to lay down for them to take your blood.  It will help you not pass out (like i did).

    139 was the cut-off in my office, but it was non-fasting (we could have eggs, cheese, & toast that morning).

    My office considers anything over a 140 high.  I made a 145 and had to take the 3-hour test (which I passed).

    My doc's cut off is 135.  I thought I was going to fail for sure because I was sick and just chugging orange juice all day long (plus had a muffin for breakfast and pasta for lunch, lol carbomaniac).  But my score was only 90.  He said I just must be good at processing sugar.  Not sure it has much to do with anything except how your body works.  Can't control it.
