3 hr glucose twice?

[shysmom87]

Ok so 3/4 months ago doc gave me 3 hr glucose cuz the random test showed i was elevated, well 3 hr came back fine. Other day had another hr glucose done and it was elevated so theyre making me yet again do the 3hr, im almost 32 weeks. Anyone else? Just seems ridiculous to me.

Yeah I just prick My finger twice a day a lot easier then I ever thought I know i dont have gestational diabetes.... So if you can just to ease your doctors mind do it... That's the only reason why I'm doing it haha..... The medical field it self is frustrating

Its ridiculous to me at this point and im the one having to pay for them. Thank yall for responding. Not to much longer and it will be over with anyway. I just dont get these dr's sometimes....ugh frustrating.i would rather do testing at home...im thinking about that one...thanks for the idea :)

Your story sounds like the one a nurse just told me. Because I said I wanted to take it again and that if I get discharged next week I will not do the blood sugar checks at home.

I think the test is is stupid I opted out of it this pregnancy.... I'm not gonna put me or the baby through that...  Instead I'm just doing blood testing at home twice a day Much easier... I know every mom is different but you have the right as a mommy not to do things...good luck mommy
