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. 💜
@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.
