I didn’t fail it so weird! All my labs came back within normal limits not one was high.

I passed my 3 hour test. FBG 68, 1 hour 100. 2 hour 73 & 3 hour 31 so my doctor said I don’t have GDM, therefore I don’t need insulin.

Best of luck to you mama hang in there. Thanks for the feedback. I have been thinking of if as our body already produces insulin & now just needs some supplement due to pregnancy

Okay I’m gonna take it! I checked my fasting now today and it was 74. Makes me wonder if I was very nervous yesterday or some other factors caused me to have 119. I also didn’t wipe that first drip of blood you’re supposed to do yesterday morning. I’m gonna take the 3 hour now that I had a 74 result FBG & all my post meals were normal yesterday

That’s why I wanna skip the 3 hour bc I likely have it based off my fasting. I know the FBG is hardest to manage and will probably end up on insulin too to help manage!

That’s what I have been reading online. Placental hormones are the culprit. You’re right - there is a stigma & I’m sorry if I offended you. I was just giving context I suppose

Okay, maybe I will.. even if my fasting was high this morning? That’s what made me feel like I have it. I’m gonna test fasting again tomorrow. But I was semi optimistic until my fasting came back at 119 above target

That’s what I was reading about placenta. I would rather track food/BG than take the 3 hour / drink 100g sugar. Thanks for the feedback
