Avatar f tn My doc just called and I did not pass the 1-hour glucose test so now I have to go back for the 3-hour! Has this happened to anybody? Anyone know what happens if I have the diabetes you get with pregnancy? Ugh!

Avatar f tn I have a family history of diabetes so when I failed the 1 hr I thought for sure I would have GD but i passed the 3 hr with flying colors!
Avatar f tn I failed my 1 hr glucose test. Have to take my 3 hr on Monday. It was pretty high and I did not eat or drink anything before appointment. Has anyone ever failed 1 hr pretty badly and passed the 3hr?
7164766 tn?1391496656 I have to do the glucose test on the 19th. it'll be the second time I've done it because the first time I only made it 30 minutes before getting sick.
Avatar f tn Please can someone explain to me what exactly is this glucose test all about.
Avatar f tn Anyone else fails by that many and then pass the 3 hour test?
Avatar f tn t mean anything other than you have to go for the 3 hour test and then depending on if you pass or fail they will tell you what to do to monitor basically if you do have gestational diabetes there's just a higher risk of a higher birth weight so your baby could just get really big
Avatar f tn I had it with my last pregnancy. This time I had to do the 3 hr test twice but luckily I passed. You will have to cut out sweets and watch your carb intake. I would eat several small meals a day about 2 to 3 hours apart snf make sure to only have 1 serving of carbs at each meal. If you are hungry in-between then snack on protein ie: beef jerky, string cheese, chicken chunks, tuna. It also helps to walk 15 minutes after each meal.
7094011 tn?1405455886 ve talked to said I should fast from midnight tonight, drink the drink and go to my appointment. Any suggestions? I would prefer to only do the test once and pass. I ABSOLUTLY hate needles and doing blood work.
Avatar f tn It depends if it's the one hour or the three hour test. If it's the one hour (screening), then don't eat anything 3 hours prior. If it's the 3 hour test, then don't eat anything 10 hours prior. Nothing you eat before that really is going to make you pass or fail- you either will pass or wont. If you're taking the 3 hour test make sure to eat well the night before so you don't feel hungry!
Avatar f tn i have my glucose test on wednesday - is there anything i should or shouldnt eat? should i fast?
Avatar f tn My 1 hour glucose test levels were elevated so now I have to do the 3 hour test. My Mom had gestational diabetes with all three of her pregnancies so I figured I would probably have it also, but I'm scared! I'm reading about all the increased risks for my baby and I can't help but feel bad/guilty about it even though I know there's nothing I can do to prevent it. I'm just hoping I pass the 3 hour test and don't have to deal with it. Anybody else going through this?
Avatar f tn How many of u failed your first glucose test and had to go for the 3 hour test? I have to go tommorow morning for the 3 hour because I failed the first one. I am sooooo worried about failing this one. Is it something that happens often?
7818018 tn?1406154441 I gained a lot for some reason and exercised through whole pregnancy(am at 36 weeks) and had to take both. I was nervous about the 2nd test, but passed all but one of the 4 draws, which didn't have to do with my weight gain or what i ate. Just how my body was slower to break down sugar in the 2nd hour. My 1 hr fail and the draw i didn't pass were barely over what they should be if that helps.
Avatar f tn I have a glucose test in the morning & I am very nervous this is my first pregnancy I guess that's why I really need advice...
Avatar n tn Normal is 140 so you missed it by 9 points I missed mine by 7 points and had to do the 3 hour test you have to fast for 10 hours before you take the 3 hour test tho make sure you do that!!!
2075937 tn?1334884194 i was given a green drink to drink when i got there and then after 1hr they took some blood and then i could leave, unfortunately for me my levels came back really high so i had to a second test where i was not allowed to eat for 12hrs before the test but i was still allowed to drink water. This time they took blood before then made have a green drink then i had to sit around for 2hrs then they took more blood before i could go home.
Avatar f tn I found out I have hypoglycemia, not diabetes... it gets worse during pregnancy for me. I have to avoid sugar. Good luck!
Avatar f tn If it's the one hr they take ur blood then u have 5 minutes to drink then at the end of the hr they draw blood again, if it's the three hour which I had to do twice this pregnancy, u have to fast the night before they draw blood every hr for three hours and u drink again it ***** waiting there but I was so .
3530672 tn?1370038043 I found out today I failed my glucose test. I have to go for the 3 hour test know. Im so sad about failing. I was really hoping to pass.
Avatar f tn If you fail and have to do the three hour the draw your blood first, make you drink the drink, and then draw blood at specific time intervals throughout the next three hours. The purpose of the test is to see how your body responds to and processes a large amount of glucose.
Avatar f tn Why are woman on this app always trying to "cheat" the test? Eat how your doctor told you to eat. If you have gestational diabetes your body WONT process sugar within an hour of the drink they give you and you will fail regardless of your previous sugar fast. This is definatly something you need to know about if you have it. Your baby's pancreas is at stake and will depend on a proper diet and possibly insulin if you do in fact have it. Good luck on your test, I hope you pass.
Avatar f tn So yesterday i had my test done and got a call that i failed it and have to retest with a 3 hour wait instead of 1. I have been eating a lot of junk food my whole pregnancy. If i get diabetes will it go away? Will my baby have it?
