GD test today

in 3rd Trimester

I'm pretty nervous about it...I've gained 33 (!!!!!) pounds and I'm only 28 weeks. 6 of that was this past week! Not anything I can do about it - the test I mean - so I'm trying not to worry, just kind of sitting here thinking about it.

 Keep your fingers crossed!

    My test is today too. I just had whole wheat toast with peanut butter for breakfast - I'm hoping it works at a blood sugar stabilizer. I'm not looking forward to the test, especially since I hate getting stuck with needles, but trying to be calm about it. Good luck to both of us!

    I've gained more than I like too, I failed the 1-hour and passed the 3-hour. Don't worry, 2 out of 3 people who fail the 1-hour will pass the 3. And honestly, if you don't pass, it has nothing to do with you, and moreso how your hormones are reacting to the placenta. It's not your fault either way!

    Good luck on your test today.  I failed the 1 hour, took the 3 hour and waiting to recieve my results today.  I believe I passed this time I just really want to hear them say it.

    I also failed the one hour and passed the three hour. Chances are, you'll be just fine. :)

    Happy to say I passed, although the drink has made me feel pretty sick all day. 

    They did tell me my iron is too low and now I have to take an iron supplement.

    As far as the weight, the doctor was like "You just need to watch it," but I didn't want to get into so I just said OK. Maybe now that I'm going every two weeks it won't be as bad? I dunno...

     Good luck everyone else!
