Really worried about this glucose test!!!

Im 24 weeks and 1 day. Yesterday i had my glucose screening done at my doctors office. I received a phone call stating that my test came back very high. The nurse told me that my levels were 156 and the normal level is below 130. Now im worried because i must go back for the second

At jwilliams81 i had a third cup of juice like an hour before i drank the glucose drink but no food at all. I hope its nothing and maybe its the juice that raised my levels. Thanks for sharing. I feel better.

Did you eat or drink before test? My first pregnancy I failed and had to retake but I was fine! Good luck

I "failed" the one hr at 147 went back week later for 3 hour passed way below the radar. If you ate anything less than 4 hours before the 1 hr you were almost guaranteed to fail. It's way to catch more real problems earlier. You can still pass easily don't stress too much!
