I failed my 1 hour glucose test and my levels were pretty high this time. So now I’m going to have to do the 3 hour…

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.
