Failed My Test

So, I just got the dreaded call. I failed my 1-hour Glucose Test. Ulgh! I have to go back on Wednesday for my 3-hour Glucose Test. I am bummed and worried. I hope I don’t have gestational diabetes. Jack is a big baby so I don’t know – the likelyhood is there I guess. I know there is still a chance that I pass the 3-hour one, but I don’t know…it all sucks. My levels from the 1-hour one was 150 which is quite high.
I was worried about this since my Mom has Diabetes as does my uncle so I definitely have a family history of it all. :( I know I’ll be able to manage, but I don’t know I had hoped to pass the first one.
I guess we’ll see what happens on Wednesday. Oh well – will have to let work folks know that I am out for the morning on Wednesday due to this long blood drawing test. :(
Yeah – I’m bummed and worried. I didn’t want to get the call. Oh well – I guess we’ll see what happens. LOML & I are going for a nice long walk tonight and tomorrow – I have been trying to walk more but fell a little behind this weekend. :( Gotta’ be better about it.
I guess I shouldn’t have had some left over Twix bars from Halloween today! Ulgh! :(

My level for the one hour was 159… and my mom, dad and grandmothers have diabetes… I also gave birth previously to a VERY LARGE baby and didn’t have GD…
Take my advice… try not to worry about it until you get the second results… I know that’s hard trust me! Especially since I thought I wasn’t going to get to eat any Thanksgiving or Christmas pie!
150 isn’t too far off from the normal. They like to see 140 and under.
Hope you pass!
