Here's to hoping that I pass the 3 hour on Monday and it goes by quickly. My midwives said no food or water after midnight and my appt. starts at 9 AM. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crap-149-blood-glucose-after-1-hr-test#post-2513134 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 15:20:16 +0000 chopsuey 2513134@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I failed the 1 hour both times. Passed the 3 hour both times. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crap-149-blood-glucose-after-1-hr-test#post-2513057 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 14:23:26 +0000 tiramisu 2513057@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I failed the 1 hour and passed the 3 hour. I think my 1 hour level was in the 150s. The night before the 3 hour test I tried to not eat too much carbohydrates and sweets. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crap-149-blood-glucose-after-1-hr-test#post-2513019 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 14:00:46 +0000 Truth Bombs 2513019@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I failed the 1 hour (my sprinkle was the night before and I ate a ton of sweets). Passed the 3 hour with flying colors. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crap-149-blood-glucose-after-1-hr-test#post-2513016 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 13:59:12 +0000 iluvboba637 2513016@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I got a 145 on the 1 hr and passed the 3 hr. </p> <p>The nurse said 145 is not that bad. Some people got 180 or 200 and she said those most likely would not pass the 3 hr. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crap-149-blood-glucose-after-1-hr-test#post-2513011 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 13:56:40 +0000 misolee 2513011@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>With Lo1, I failed my first and passed the three hour. . I didn't eat breakfast (really early appt)had lots and lots of water right before I took the first one and I think that threw it off? </p> <p>With LO2, I didn't want to fail bc the three hour test was torture. I followed the docs instructions given to me to the tee including eating one piece of plain toast. Yay passed! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crap-149-blood-glucose-after-1-hr-test#post-2512985 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 13:42:57 +0000 lovehoneybee 2512985@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>When I was pregnant with my first I got a 183 at my one hour :shocked: but passed by 3 hour! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crap-149-blood-glucose-after-1-hr-test#post-2512981 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 13:40:23 +0000 mamabolt 2512981@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I failed my one hour and passed the three hour both pregnancies. I tried to eat a more balanced diet over the days before the test (especially dinner the night before) but ultimately your body will do what it does. Good luck! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crap-149-blood-glucose-after-1-hr-test#post-2512980 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 13:39:13 +0000 JennyLayneAZ 2512980@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>@Sadieloo: I failed my 1 hour and passed my 3 hour too. I didn't do anything different besides not eating pasta the night before lol but if you truly have GD there isn't anything you can do to pass the test. Oh and FYI the drink is much sweeter for the 3 hour...it's not the same sugar concentrate as the 1 hour. I wasn't aware that it would be so much sweeter! </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crap-149-blood-glucose-after-1-hr-test#post-2512969 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 13:35:19 +0000 MrsBrewer 2512969@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Me! I failed my 1 hr, but passed my 3 hour. I ate a huge bagel the morning on the 1 hour test..... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crap-149-blood-glucose-after-1-hr-test#post-2512962 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 13:32:44 +0000 avivoca 2512962@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>They told me to keep eating normally to not throw off the 3-hr. I ended up with GD.</p> <p>Definitely balance your carbs with your protein. Also, measure your portions! I found that I could eat cereal as long as it was exactly one serving with 1/2 a cup of milk and exactly 8 oz. of orange juice every morning without making my glucose go sky high. You can also eat different carbs (sweet potatoes instead of regular potatoes) and make sure you are eating some protein with them. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crap-149-blood-glucose-after-1-hr-test#post-2512933 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 13:17:26 +0000 Torchwood 2512933@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Balancing protein and carb intake is more important than just cutting out sugar. </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crap-149-blood-glucose-after-1-hr-test#post-2512930 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 13:16:26 +0000 catomd00 2512930@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>I failed my 1 hour by 1 point and passed the 3. Hope you pass the 3 hour! Your doc should have given you instructions for the diet before the 3 hour test... </p> https://boards.hellobee.com/topic/crap-149-blood-glucose-after-1-hr-test#post-2512924 Fri, 01 Apr 2016 13:11:40 +0000 Sadieloo 2512924@https://boards.hellobee.com/ <p>Anyone have experience failing the 1 hr fasting test and passing the 3 hr test? I took mine yesterday and my level was 149. I have been eating a lot of Easter candy and sweets (I'm tired and sugar helps, right?) and am hoping that if I clean things up over the weekend before the 3 hr test on Monday, I'll be ok. Any thoughts on what to do? Should I just avoid sugar and carbs? </p>
