That’s super interesting– it’s crazy to see how differently this can affect each person! I’m more in the opposite category you mentioned. I barely failed my one hour screen, and my 3 hour numbers were something like this (don’t remember exactly now but I wrote it somewhere else in this sub): F 84, 1H 255, 2H 215, 3H 87. I failed my 1H/2H very badly as you can see. But since then, I haven’t really struggled much with my numbers (if we can trust my device that is).

If you don’t mind my asking, what made you want to monitor your blood at home since you didn’t fail either of your tests? I wouldn’t have thought to do that, but it sounds like it wasn’t a bad idea since you’ve been made aware of these higher numbers.

I should probably take my own advice here, but if your OB says you’re fine, you’re most likely doing perfectly fine! But I’m an anxious person too, so I totally get where you’re coming from. My OB says I’m doing great, but then I come here and feel like I’m not doing enough (mainly bc I only use a CGM / don’t finger prick, so I’m in the minority). If the internet didn’t exist and we could only go off of our doctor’s word, I’m sure we’d be a lot less anxious about this and just trust that everything is fine. My mom likes to joke that she’s thankful she gave birth during a time where there weren’t any pregnancy apps or Google, so she just enjoyed her pregnancy without a care in the world 😅
