Its normally done between 24-28 weeks because that it is im the 3rd trimester that a pregnants womans pancreas usually starts going haywire and cant regulate the insulin... if you have had it before they test you earlier.... I was tested at 28 weeks and failed the 1hr one... tested at 29 weeks for the 3hr one and failed that... 2 days later went in amd was given a glucose monitor to check my sugars 4x a day... it su cks... im soo glad this part of this journey is almost over... its been a rough pregnancy...

My doc email and said that I have to do the 3 hour glucose testing and that will determine if I have g.d . The one hour is a screening.

She told me at 7 weeks I would be doing the 3 hour testing at least 3x throughout my pregnancy. I did this with my first two as well

I had mine at 29 weeks and my one hour came back at 134 and they want you under 130. So I had to do the 3 hour test. I failed that one too so I get weekly ultrasounds to monitor her. I am 32 weeks now and the only thing that ***** is no more sweets and barely any carbs. Telling a pregnant woman not to eat *****! But I don't need insulin or anything because the diet keeps me regulated.

They normally do them around 24 weeks.  When I had mine done I was at 219, so automatically they sent me home with a glucose monitor to check my levels 4x a day.  I don't necessarily agree with it,  but anything for babies well being- I have a check up this week depending on how my levels have been he'll determine if I'll need insulin.  However,  referring to the guide I was given its been ok. In my Dr's office their guidelines are it should be no higher than 140, if it's 141-200 they'll order the 3 hr test but over 200 your considered diabetic. :/
