Failed the one hour

Well... Failed the 1 hour... Have to schedule the three hour. And my iron is low, even though I'm already on a prenatal with iron. So I have to take an extra iron supplement. She said it would give me more energy.

Anyone fail with a 143-ish and pass the 3 hour? I'm so stressed. I already restrict my diet so much, only gained 4 lbs and I'm 27 weeks. (I was already plus sized when I started so I am supposed to gain only 11-20 lbs total.) I can't imagine eating LESS or not being able to have fruit (what I crave) and carbs. Ugh.

Re: Failed the one hour

I failed with a 184 and almost passed the 3 hour but I didn't! I think you have a good shot! good luck!

Failed the one hour

I failed the 1 hour with a 146 and failed 2 of the 4 draws of the 3 hour by 10 pts. Every person is different. Women have failed the 1 hour with higher #'s and have gone on to pass the 3 hour.

If you end up with GD, you can still have fruit and carbs. You just have to find a balance.

I'm also plus sized and as of my 33w appt, I have lost a total of 24 lbs. I was down to 27 but around 28-30w, I stopped losing and started to slowly gain which the doctors were actually thrilled about.

I don't remember my numbers but for my last baby I failed one hour and passed three hour.

Failed the one hour

I failed the 1 hour with a 162 I believe. The three hour test was tough (the way my dr. wrote the script they actually took my blood 5 times and I had to give urine after each draw) I had nothing left at the end of it.. but I thankfully passed! The lab allowed me to drink water (I told them I would not be able to give urine otherwise) and step outside if need be. I'm not sure if the water/walking helped me pass at all. Good luck! I've heard many women fail the 1 hour and still pass the 3 hour.

Re: Failed the one hour

I failed the 1 hour with a 158! And passed the 3 hour with flying colors. You definitely have a good chance of passing I would think.

Failed the one hour

My Dr had me take it this week at 16 weeks. Just found out I failed by 1 point. Taking the 3 hour on Monday. I really hope I pass.

Thank you everyone, for your replies. I have a little hope now that I will pass the 3 hour.

Eliza--wow!! That's an amazing weight loss! Maybe there will be a bright side to it.

Hopefully I will be one of those fail the 1 and pass the 3! I'll update. I tried to make an appt for Saturday but they didn't call back yet.
