Anybody else on here ever failed their Glucose and had too be put on a 2000 calorie diet the remainder of their…

I just failed my 1hr one. My 3hr one is scheduled for next Friday. If I fail that I have to get a consultation done.

I got put on a 2000 calorie diet because of rapid weight gain in my last trimester out of precaution, even though my blood sugar is fine

I failed both mine but I didn't get put on a 2000 calorie diet mine was different I was on a strick diet but not a 2000 calorie diet

@orphanpuppy, I take my 3hr test Monday

@rebcamdot, how did you do on the 2,000 calorie diet?

@mrs.cravens, Did you have too get put on the pills?

no when u fail both it means you have gestational diabetes and you have to poke your finger 3 times a day and can only eat certain amount of foods.

I've never heard of the pills

I'm on pills but I was a diabetic before pregnancy.

if you do end up taking pills they will probably put you on Glyburide. They prescribe it to a lot of pregnant woman, but once you have the baby you stop taking them so it won't get in your breast milk

@alleyelisabeth, I've been doing ok, going over some days but it did stop the weight gain. The hardest things are not giving in to cravings, I do sometimes and only have a small portion, and keeping track. I use an app "Lose It" that helps me keep track and you can scan barcodes and look up restaurant items to get the nutritional info.
