I failed mine too. My doctor told me to go ahead and take it knowing I had ate though and gave me no idea he was doing the test. I'm angry and scared. I dread the 3 hours because I have to fast before it. I end up sick when I can't eat. Any advise?
My doctor suggested I eat a healthy meal before.. I go July 8 for my testing.
With my last pregnancy i failed the one hour but passed the 3 hour no problem. This pregnancy on the other hand i failed them both :(
I'm scheduled next week n my doc instructions (in writing ) were not to eat anything for 12 hours not even gum or water. If I have to drink water just a small amt. He said if I do eat anything the result will not be accurate
Typically you're not supposed to fast before the glucose test. I ate right up until I drank the glucose drink and my 1 hour BG result was 58. I had the early test and will have it again at 28 weeks cause they always think I am diabetic cause my babies are so big. It's a good idea to watch your sugar and carb intake anyway. Good luck on your test.
No I still haven't took my three hour one yet. I wanted to know if anyone passed the three hour after failing the one hour. The nurse was concerned because I hadnt ate anything for 12 hours and it was that high just from the glucose drink. I'm so devastated because I am not over weight and I thought I was having a smooth pregnancy.
I don't have mine scheduled until the end of the month...but I am nervous about it! My appointment isn't until 3pm and I am going to be starving before I go there! Also diabetes runs in my family so I am super nervous! So you ended up passing yours after 3 hours? What did your doctor say about that?
