2hr glucose test?

Has anyone ever heard of this? With DD#1 I took a 1hr test (and passed). I have to go for my glucose test but it says 2hr and the nurse said it is "more accurate". Just wondering if anyone else has done this........

Re: 2hr glucose test?

I've read on here that a lot of doctors are doing this now because the 1 hour does produce so many false results, and it can be affected very easily. The 2 hour is supposed to be more accurate, thus hoping to avoid the need for the 3 hour in many cases.

Re: 2hr glucose test?

Some Drs are moving to just doing the 2hr test instead of the 1 hr and then the 3 if you fail.

So if you pass the 2 hr you are good if you fail they will not test you again and you will have to follow the GD diet etc.

I have a perscription to do this one, but I had GD with DC #1, and I have been working with an endocrinologist to be sure to monitor my situation closely. I've been on a GD diet since start of 2nd tri
