Glucose test

I failed my 1 hour glucose test. My doctor wanted it to be less than 130mg but my results were 145mg. Did you have to take the 3 hour test? If you had gestational diabetes, how did your life/diet change?

I only did the 3 hour test but got tested at the one hour mark & retested at the 3 hour mark I believe, I passed but felt like garbage for like 4 days after the day of the test

I had gestational diabetes, I just cut out the sugar but it made me feel better in the end and less nauseous because I was always snacking on something little and not eating so much junk lol

I did the one hour I failed with a 179 and they diagnosed at 180 they gave me a choice to take the 3 hour or just be diagnosed with it. I said just give it to me I’m not siting for 3 hours for you to just tell me I have it anyway.

With my second, I failed the 1 hour test but went on to pass the 3 hour test!

Didn't get a 1hr test but failed the 3hr test and have gone on to be put on the maximum amount of tablets and then slow release insulin injections for over night. Been told I've managed my diet perfectly but the hormones have just been too strong for me to control it through diet alone which has helped because I was really beating myself up about it. Feel free to pop me a message if you want to chat at all x

I was over by .1 🫠 i had a lot of meat and cheese, that helped me. Also theres a website and facebook group called Gestational Diabetes UK (not sure if there's one for other countries) its a great support group and has a load of GD safe recipes
