Early GD Test

I was just wondering if any of you had an early GD test. I just did mine last week. I'm in Canada (BC) and we don't do a 3 hour test here it seems, but I had a fasting draw, then a 1 hr draw, and then a 2 hr draw. I passed the fasting and 2 hr, but failed (barely) the 1 hr. Has this happened to any of you? Did they say you had GD even though you passed the later test? Did you get tested again later on? I see my OB next week so I'll of course ask her, but I was just wondering what other multiples moms experienced. TIA for any insight, ladies! :)

ETA: With DD I never had GD.

Re: Early GD Test

  • I had GD with DD so with my twins I was tested at 16wks instead of 28. I had a slightly elevated draw so I opted to go to diet immediately instead of the 3hr test. We never retested because my numbers were well within normal ranges with diet control.

    Usually the diagnosis is given if you fail any 2 of the 4 draws (with the 3hr test), your fasting number is high, or if you "spectacularly" fail any of the draws.

  • Mine was done at 11w
  • I didn't take my test until 26w along, and haven't gotten the results back.  But I did fast for it (8 hrs), and if I fail I have to do the 3 hour test.  But that is all I have to offer you :(  Good luck!
