ok I'm going to be honest cause I can't stop stressing about this..... I had to do the one hour glucose test on 5/24 because I gained 7 pounds in a month, I had no idea about my weight gain (still trying to figure out where I gained weight at honestly) plus I couldn't prepare for the one hour test so I was stressed about that cause I had a giant glass of kool-aid to wake me up before going to that appointment in the first place, and I've had an eating disorder since I was 13 so gaining weight has been hard on me, but I was getting yelled at for not gaining anything at all the month before that. I now feel like a horrible person and I'm hungry/thirsty and stressed and can't sleep. 3 hour glucose test today.....

you're doctor seems strange too me... weight shaming you? weight can fluctuate 4 pounds a day due to water and waste... good luck on today.. hopefully itll come back negative.and.he will get off your ass about it... sounds really strange to me that he would even push you to do it when you went last not knowing.about it.for 7 pounds... oh and you are in the second trimester gaining all the weight back you.lost in.the first... and baby is roughly doubling in weight each week... that "none" of that would have been considered.., in my book youre doing great andthr body shaming doctor needs to take a hike..

he has horrible bedside manners @jessicagarmal
I cried for 3 hours after that appointment because I feel like I did something wrong... I mean if I fail I fail nothing I can do about it I just feel like crap because I finally felt great since I found out I was pregnant and then he comes in a makes me feel horrible for putting on weight (if it's unhealthy weight I'd understand) but I come from a family of bigger and blessed women and I've always been small I weighed 1 pound 9.2 ounces at birth so I was proud of myself for trying to do right by my son and giving him a fighting chance....
and thank you :)

Don't feel bad I can't gain weight because I'm consider to big so what ever weight I do gain they are always telling me to not gain any more. So far I have gain 13 pounds my whole pregnancy. An the glucose I had to take it 3 times. I only failed it when ever I drink the drink but I past the rest. So I have glucose intolerance so now they jusy check my sugar when I go to see the doctor and its always normal.

@tanalaureano, I decided if I fail what's the worst the can do, have me test myself for the rest of my pregnancy not a big deal, just feel like I let my son and fiancé down and that's what hurts the most...

Don't feel that way it's not your fault at all. A lot of different things happen to our body when we are pregnant that we don't have any control over
the best thing to do is try to maintain your sugar if it is high.

you didnt let anyone down... GD is actually your body trying to protect baby... its not diabetes like type 2.. yes larger ladies are more prone to it (coming from a large.lovely lady :p).. but its there soeven back in our.primitive age if we would go spurts without esting much food the baby would still be fine due to the extra stored sugars and fats your body collected when.you did est due to the extra.insuline hormone.in your body... so if anything.your.body is trying.to help baby... not that its appreciated these days but its cool to know your body really is doing.its own self preservation type thing..

@tanalaureano, thank you. I'm trying to stay positive but it's hard thinking I might have messed up and possibly caused harm to my son :/ plus I'm emotional 24/7 so that doesn't help

@awn0710, I want to but confrontation stresses me out and I want to change doctors but what if I dislike the new doctor more than I dislike the current doctor

@dianne0825, then change again! You shouldn't ever have to be uncomfortable with a doctor! Maybe ask any momma friends that you may have about their ObGYn and see if they liked them. My biggest rule was no male doctor! I just don't want to feel uncomfortable and or judged! Just make the change. You will be happier and it will make the rest of your pregnancy much more comfortable! And not to mention delivery will probably be much easier as far as comfort goes!
