Failed my 1hr glucose test ;( and I'm a tubby ;(


So I went in to get my results for my 1 hour glucose tolerance test today and I failed with a BS of 162. I didn't fast for this one and did let my doctor know but she still wants me to get the 3hour glucose tolerance test and I'm super scared that I will fail that too
Not only was my BS bad news but she also commented on my weight gain talk about kicking you when you're down I'm 26 weeks and have gained 22lbs Although this is far less than what I gained with my previous 2 and had never been told a thing about my weight then, I'm totally bummed! Not a good doctors visit today! I just want to cry

I was told not to fast...I'm imagine I will fail because mine is 10am and I will have to eat breakfast as my son wakes at 6:30.

I have known several people to fail 1 hr and pass 3hr.

I've been doing some research and have read the same thing, that it's very common to fail the 1 hour and pass the 3 hour. I hope that is my case because my doctor gave me some pamphlets on GD and a log for my BS checks (7 blood sugar checks a day) just to look over.

I will keep my fingers crossed that our 3 hour glucose tests come out okay
I had a 6lb increase this past month I just hope it slows down from here on out!
Thank you, I am addicted to those 3d u/s ...hahaha I want another already but I know I have to hold out! I just can't get enough of her!

I didn't think I was that bad off but my Dr. did say to start modifying my diet. I'm guessing she was just blown away as I was by my 6lb gain in 1 month
