I did the 1hr glucose test on Monday. They called yesterday and it was high. I think she said it was 153 and it needs to be less than 140 so onto the 3hr test. I hate this. Overall my numbers have been normal. I didn't plan very well for the one hour test I took on Monday. I think I had sweet and sour chicken the night before, so that likely put my sugar up. I should have been more cautious.
I'm going next week to take the 3hr. I'll monitor my numbers closely and will cut out sugar again. I had gotten a bit lax since things were going so well after the 1st 1 hr test. I hope I can be normal for the 3hr test and avoid the GD diagnosis. It doesn't save me, I have to take the test again even if I pass this time due to my past history of GD. I hate it. It's the only thing that plagues me during pregnancy. I feel great. I have no difficulty with pregnancy other than this junk. At least I know it's not overt diabetes.
