I failed my 1 hour glucose test and my levels were pretty high this time. So now I’m going to have…

Did you fast before hand?

Even if she didn't fast the pancreas has to be able to keep levels normal despite what you eat. I failed with a 239 after eating two sausage links and drinking coffee. I didn't even need to take the 3 hour test, it was clear I had GD.

@valerie_jean, I Dnt think you don’t have to fast before hand u jst cant eat or drink anything with a lot of sugar

@marielovely Exactly.

@lovelily, wow that makes me feel a little better about mine. Mine was in the 160’s. I failed it with my first too.

@lovelily, did they put you on a special meal plan or diet? I failed the one hour with a 190 they won’t even test me with the 3 hour but told me to go on this diet but the food is yuck

@jacqueline_january I was put on insulin. Twice a day. Diet did not work for me. But if you stick to a high protein diet you should do okay. Meat and veggies. No potatoes. No desserts.

@lovelily, ugh that is so hard I live in the south lol rice and gravy and potatoes are a main staple lol I will

Try and go buy alternative things I can have this weekend

@jacqueline_january I live in the south too. I know how it is. But you're doing it for baby.
