Ugh.

Flunked my one hour glucose screen, but just barely. 139 = passing, and my level was 152. Must do a 3 hour screen before my next appointment in the next two weeks.


Heart sinking just a little.

I don't know much about this, but hope all goes great with the 3 hour and you pass with flying colors.

Hang in there. (hugs)

Is it just me, or did they lower the passing number from what it used to be? I swear according to the old guidelines you would be in the passing zone. Sorry about having to do the 3 hour - I'm keeping my fingers crossed that you'll pass with flying colors! ((hugs))

Same thing just happened to me, but I passed the three hour test. I found statistics on Baby Center that said 50% of people flunk the screening and that 51% pass the 3-hour test. I found this comforting.

Keeping my fingers crossed for you.

Damn, k! That stinks. Really hoping that the three-hour is not so bad and successful.

Yuck! I had to take the 3 hour with my daughter and it sucks as far as sitting there for 3 hours, but I did pass it.

I hope you pass it as well!

So sorry to hear about the test results. : ( Mine is on Monday. Hope the 3-hour test isn't too bad for you -- I heard that only 26% of those who fail the screen get the official GD diagnosis later, so odds are in your favor!
