High-Risk Pregnancy

Major fail

I took my one hour glucose test this morning and failed! Now on to the 3 hour. What a major blow. I've been really good but my doctor says bed rest can make people more susceptible to GD. Lets see what the 3 hours brings. God is really testing me today!

Re: Major fail

  • Harley did you take your one hour yet? If so and if you failed how did your 3 hour go?
    If not good luck! It's not bad at all. I'm just bummed I failed.

  • I got steroids back on July 9 and 10. It was over all fine. I'm an easy draw so the labs went fine and the drink went down fine, they had it really chilled for me. I did cut back on my carbs but assumably not enough. The worst is my birthday is Tuesday and I have been dieing for birthday cake and now I'm hesitant to have any! Buzz kill.
  • Not sure when I will have to do the 3 hour. I only see my doctor in the mornings so I won't find out until tomorrow I am sure. Tuesdays are my NST day and Wednesdays are my US days. Maybe to full my week it will be Thursday!
  • I'm sorry you failed. That really stinks. If it helps at all, I failed the 1hour by 5, and then failed the 3 hour. However my numbers have been low. I am watching how many carbs and sugar I'm eating, but that's something I should be doing regardless. They actually just cut back testing my glucose levels to 3 days a week because my fasting numbers have been under 90 and my 2 hours after meal numbers have been under 120, unless I eat something like pizza, or a lot of bread.
    Good luck, I hope you pass! If not you may be able to control it just with diet, if your numbers aren't too high.

  • With my last dd I failed the one hour but still passed the 3 hour. So there is hope :) With this one, I failed both so I did end up with GD. But there are six years difference between these two pregnancies so I was not too surprised. In all fairness, I hadn't been eating all that healthy beforehand.
