Any moms fail their sugar test? I’m over here an emotional wreck now
How did your baby turn out if you don’t mind me asking? Like did you have to have a Csection?
@shantara_perkins, I did but only because after 17 hours of labor, I wouldn’t dilate more than 3cm and baby was not getting enough oxygen. My epidural wore off early, I was having intense back labor with contractions lasting 3 times as long as normal contractions and they were overlapping each other. So I was getting no break between contractions with intense pain and no meds. When my dr gave me the option for c-section I jumped on it because I was so worried about my baby not getting enough oxygen for so long.
@shantara_perkins, but I ended up with a perfectly healthy baby girl. And since she was born neither she or I have had any issues with our blood sugar. The only thing I have to worry about now is once she gets pregnant, I have to remind her that she’s at higher risk of having GD because I had it when I was pregnant with her.
They didn’t do the three hour one. They just said i had gestational diabetes and they were going to send me to a high risk doctor
I failed mine and they didn’t do 3 hour test. I was able to manage my blood sugar by following a strict diet without meds and checking my blood sugar every day. I was also high risk. It’ll be okay. Just do exactly what they tell you to do. 💜
