Okay so I'm trying not to freak out but my doctors office just called me and said I failed my glucose screening but I passed my screening when she first tested me at 7 weeks.. If I don't pass the 3hr test Monday I'll be diagnosed with gestational diabetes... Does anyone have/had gestational diabetes? If so how did this effect your pregnancy?
Dont stress out too much doll, I failed the 1 hour test and ended up passing the 3 hour. nowadays its not uncommon for that to happen. I was scared too but I'm sure you'll be fine :)
I had gestational diabetes and I only had to poke my finger 3 times a day it just depends on your doctor but make sure you don't cheat and make sure you keep up with a diet they say when u have gestational diabetes your baby will be big but if you maintain your diet that's not the case my daughter was only 5lbs 15oz and tested negative for diabetes
no I don't work out. I mean I walk up my 18 stairs about 10 times a day lol. I eat 2 eggs in the morning and some toast. mainly I eat eggs and meat.. and veggies. no sweets and I drink diet Pepsi with no aspartame. and lots of water.
lol I understand, until you get the call saying all is well, you're gonna worry. I was the same. I hope you pass!
I'm trying to stay calm but I guess I have to wait and really see if I am or not Monday. @shawnda
yes I have it. you just have to make sure u watch ur sugar u have to poke ur finger 4 times a day. I eat alot of eggs. I have kept my sugar down and done great. if you have it means usually u will have a bigger baby and probably have to be induced 1 week before your duedate. as long as you watch ur sugar you and baby will be great. good luck and always remember listen to the drs.
Thank you so much, I hope so :) @jessmeyer716
