Yeah what @shannonxmarie23 said. I think when you drink the drink your body doesn't process the sugar enough by making not enough insulin or whatever and then the levels show too high when they do a blood draw. Maybe I misunderstood too I dunno lol. I failed every single blood draw they took 😞
so, how it works is that you drink their drink with a bunch of sugar in it, the sugar goes into your blood stream, and after an hour your body should have processed the sugar, removing it from your blood stream, bringing your blood sugar levels down to a healthy range. if your blood sugar levels are still too high after an hour, they make you retest with a stronger drink and over more time. so again, they raise your levels in your blood, and then over three hours they track how fast your body is taking the sugars out of your blood, by testing your levels once every hour. if you fail that, it means your body is not processing sugar like it should, and all that extra sugar can get to your baby, and sugar makes babies grow faster, it's like miracle grow for babies. it can also cause other problems, but I'm not super familiar with those.
Oh okay I was confused I always wonder how that happened and I see it happen to a lot of ppl so I wasn't sure especially since I will be dong mine soon I definitely don't want to do the three hour one

I failed because my blood sugar levels were to high for what they recommend them to be.

your body doesn't process the sugar all the way and your levels are higher then recommended
