Gestational Diabetes

Just got word today I failed the three hour test. Going to see a specialist. Nervous! Anyone else in this boat?

    Bummer! There are a few people who have GD on this board. If you look down a few posts there is a weekly GD check in. I'd link but I'm mobile and lazy.

    Yep I am.  When they called and told me I failed they said they want blood sugar readings 4 times a day.  They also sent me to a class that showed you how to use your blood sugar meter and also about eating better.  They told me that first it's seeing if diet and exercise will help keep your blood sugar in range, if it didn't they would have you start taking a pill.  If it got really bad you would have to be on insulin.

     

    *Edit* - You should check out the post with the weekly GD check in.  Lots of great tips

  • I had it with DD. Just failed my second 1 hour, I have my 3 hour on Monday and I'm assuming I'll fail. No fun. Hoping yours is diet controlled!
