I failed the one hour glucose test. I could just cry. :(. I have to take the three hour fasting test next week. I am so dreading that. I can't go for over three hours without eating or else I feel really nauseous. How in the world am I going to do 13 hours with them drawing blood?? I fully expect to throw up and or faint. :(:(:(:(. Not to

To get past the 3 hour test, without puking or fainting, try to load up on protein, lots of protein, before you start the fast.

IF they decide you have gestational diabetes, still try to load up on protein and veggies and fruit.

Vent away, honey, we'll listen.

If you have GD you want o know. It can be extremely dangerous for you and baby if you go undianosed and untreated.

You'll get thru it if you have it. I had it and I was sick my entire pregnancy. You'll find things you can eat.

Oh, I know it's important to know. :) I'm definitely taking the test... I am just dreading it and if I fail, I have no idea what I am going to eat due to all my restrictions as it is already. I have been talking with a nutritionist though to meet with her, even if I do pass it. That has given me some peace of mind. :)

I didn't do this test with Sophia or Kate, but with Evelyn I failed it the first time...they let me do the one-hour again and I passed. It's really common to flunk the one-hour test. I bet you'll be okay. Yeah, eat lots of protein.

I am hoping so. I have decided even if I pass it, I'm still going to see a nutritionist. heh. It just kind of scared me .. :) :)

Not a bad idea! :)
