It is! I had GD last time (no medication needed, just diet). I am sugar sensitive anyway (HypoGlycemic) so the whole test just makes me feel awful and I'm sure I'll fail.
I tried to go straight to testing everyday at home but the doctor insisted on a baseline.
@laurenashley04 - same story. GD last pregnancy, did the 1-Hr at 10w for baseline (failed) and then 3-Hr at 11w (failed). I started testing this week and go for my first consult tomorrow. It's going to be a long, low-carb 6 months.
I had GD with my first and was allowed to meter with my second. I'm trying to talk her into letting me meter again this time. My sugars so far are only high in the am because I can't help late night snacking.
We have two sleeping beauties in heaven. Jack gained his wings on 09/02/2016. Kali gained her wings on 07/28/2015. They will be forever missed.
@OhStars I hear you on the 1 hour fail - no word yet but I'm sure I failed based on how ill I was afterwards. I didn't get any counsel in my first time so hopefully they give me more guidance this time!!
Luckily my only real issues of temptation are white rice and Chinese food -I don't eat a ton of sweet stuff that often.
