if you were really over on your numbers they might not have you do a second test. You can always ask to be tested a second time.
I had GD with my baby #2. I had to take a 4hr nutritional class for GD. Baby and I were monitored more closely, I had more ultrasounds. I was able to control it with diet alone, but there are meds that they will give if needed.
See that’s what I figured but she called and said nothing about a retest. She went straight to....”on Wednesday I have to go see the specialist for a consultation and another ultrasound”
So some offices do a 1 hour and 3 hour if you fail the 1 hour. However some like yours (it sounds like) only offers a 2 hour test. If you fail they treat you as if you have GD. That’s why they didn’t schedule a retest.
ETA they did only a 2 hour with the ob I saw with my son and she explained to me why. Most women fail the 1 hour only to be tortured with the 3 hour and a lot pass the 3 hour. So just to make it easier they do the 2 only.

To have to takr another, longer one. If you fail that, they'll start monitoring you for gestational diabetes and other issues associated with that.
