Wondering where we're all at.[Poll]

I took the 2-hour fasting test and passed with lots of room to spare (none of my numbers were above 80, hooray!).

SS - because my OB doesn't offer the 1 hour. I took the 3 hour and passed though.

I did a one hour test at home. Then turned it into a two hour. My one hour results were a fail, my 2 hour were fine. So I did a fasting the next day, then a 2 hour post prandial and faxed all results to my doc. (she actually gave me the option to just do the fasting and 2 hour postprandial instead of the actual 1 hour glucose test...but we have glucola at my work, so I just did it and stuck my finger anyway)

We didn't even bother with a 3 hour. Even though all but the 1 hour were OK, she suspects I have occasional problems with high glucose. She didn't dx me with GD...but for insurance purposes she did so that they would cover a glucometer for me to test after meals.

I failed my 1 hr and passed my 3 hr but barely. They didn't diagnosis me with GD but they HIGLY recommended I watch what I eat and they will closely monitor how big the baby is. I basically can't eat white flour. If I have a carb I must eat a protein with it. I also can only eat 1/2 piece a fruit at a time. They said they think my body isn't processing sugar like it should since I threw up the glucose drink!

I took the 1-hour on Friday but haven't heard back on my results yet. Doctor said he'd call with them. At this point, I'm assuming no news is good news unless I hear otherwise.

I just took my 1 hour yesterday. I do not have results yet.

I have GD. Its not so bad. Just a little worried that the baby will be 50 lbs. DS was 9 lbs 5 oz. and I didn't have GD, plus I look like I'm carrying twins so it should be interesting to see how big this baby will be.
