failed 1 hr glucose test NERVOUS

[goldie555]

I had the one hr glucose test, she said it was supposed to be under 130 and mine was 170... I have to go back Monday for the three hour test...anyone been through this?? I also had low iron and was told to get an additional supplament. This makes me feel SO unhealthy!! I don't eat a lot of junk food, in fact I eat minimally. Usually once a day and once before bed. I was never overweight, I'm 5'4'' have a child already, and my weight when im not pregnant is consistent 115. Any tips, ideas???? I've been through EXTREME stress this pregnancy, could that contribute?? I'm lost.... :(

I failed my first one also and passed the 3 hour they told me they recently changed to passing numbers to lower numbers this might b why so many of us aren't passing the first time

Honestly it sounds like you're not eating enough...that can throw off your blood sugar too. Eat small healthy meals and snacks every 3-4 hours; I was told that even if I wasn't particularly hungry, the baby is and needs the energy. My mom's diabetic but hers is always uncontrolled because she refuses to eat more than once or twice a day.

I just went through this last Friday. I failed the one hour with a result of 134 and passed the 3 hour with a result of 93. I seriously thought they mixed my first test up with someone else's results. I haven't been eating bad either so i was shocked to hear that I failed. Just try to stay calm. I was extremely worried too and asked what would happen if I failed again. They said they would just change my diet a
bit and prescribe some pills. Either way it's nothing that can't be fixed or controlled :)

Stress will raise your sugar levels. When you go for your 3hr test try to relax. The less you stress the better!

I also failed it too and I hardly ate because I was sick all the time. I did the 3 hr test and I was fine. Don't worry u will b ok. I also have anemia but I get so constipated I can't take the iron supplement. I feel dizzy nauseous and lightheaded but I try and eat stuff high iron. I felt the same way too guilty but don't stress urself out not good for the baby.
