Had gestational diabetes with #1 and failed my 1 hr test with #2. What's the point of going in for the 3 hr test? I would just as soon follow the GD diet, as I did with #1. Should I ask OB to forego the test? [ Reply | Watch | Flag ]

and no objections by your OB, I assume? I just think it's silly to go in when I can easily control w/diet. [ Reply | More ]

blah did the 3hr and hated it; really the worst part of my pregnancy. I'd ask them to forego. [ Reply | More ]

I'm not being irresponsible by not taking it, right? I'd of course operate under the assumption I had it and do the diet, etc. [ Reply | More ]

I had GD with ds #1---failed the 1 hour test with ds #2, then PASSED the 3 hour and didn't have GD. I was sure it was a mistake--but, no! DS #2 was born just fine, much smaller than #1, and all was well---take it, you might not have it! I was shocked! [ Reply | More ]

np but even if she doesn't have it, going on the GD diet wouldn't hurt. [ Reply | More ]

Former GD poster mom here---I'm not saying she shouldn't adopt the diet, just saying that she won't have to worry so much about following it. Summer is ice cream season! I didn't micro-manage and I only gained 27 lbs. [ Reply | More ]
