Failed Glucose Test

[mommaDof3]

So I had my 1 hour today and my levels were 150 which is considerably higher than normal levels. I fasted starting at 11 pm last night and did my test at noon today, so eating wasn't the issue.  Now I have to take a 3 hour which *****. How many have passed the 3 hour after failing the 1 hour and how many have failed it?  If so, what did your dr advise?

Thanks ladies! I'm hoping that I pass this 3 hour. I'm not eating anything but veggies the day before lol.

Ugh....not looking forward to this. I have never failed a glucose in my previous pregnancies so this *****. I know how it works on the lab side, I'm a phlebotomist so I had to do it all the time for the ob's office but I've never had to get it done. I'm just stressed out.  I seriously have never had any sort of medical complications with my pregnancies so it stresses me out. :(

I failed my one hour and passed my three hour! It's very common for this to happen...I was also high risk for diabetes dont stress :) you aren't doing anything wrong just remember that!

Failed my one hour but passed the 3 hour. Just a heads up you will have to have your blood drawn four times during your 3 hour. One once you get there and then every hour there after till your times up. Nobody told me that part so thought I'd break the news.

Failed my 3hr so Dr wants me to schedukle appointment with a diabetic nutritionist. Basically change diet, avoid carbs and sugar and things should be fine. Definitely a lot scarier than it sounds.

I failed my one hour but passed my three hour and all my doc said was to watch what I eat and I'll be fine.
