Question/advice...
so i got a 136 on my 1 hour glucose test; threshold is 130 so basically 6 points over. Now my doc wants me to do the 3 hour test and I really don't think its necessary. What do you mamas think? Anyone failed their 1 hour test and didn't opted out of the 3 hour??
I'd either do it or at least agree to monitor your sugar for a week by testing yourself 4 times a day. GD is serious, so even if you failed by a small margin....you failed and you should have further testing
Yes the cut off for me was 140 and I got a 176. I did the three hour and passed every draw except the 1 hour draw but she didn't diagnose me as having GD. She said watch my sugar intake and she would monitor my urine for any significant changes.
@brenking, really i didnt know. I'm going to mention the 140 when I see her tomorrow
I'm surprised they say the max is 130. It's usually 140.
Transgender children
So I just learned that in my kids school district (my kids aren't in school yet my oldest will be starting kindergarten next September) there are twin boys who identify as girls. They are 5 years old. What's your opinions on this matter given they are 5!!! I don't believe that at that age they really understand the whole thing. So the entire school had to take a course on how to handle transgender children. For example they can't say girls go this or boys do that. What are...


Hello ladies so I peed on a test randomly cause my boobs been killing me and this is what I see instantly , what do you think ?
Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no,
his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me...
@dabcw3814, im going to ask about the different cut off numbers when I see my doc in a few. @arivera64 the monitoring for a week sounds like an option I'm will to try. Will inquire about it today.
