Sounds like your glucose levels are pretty normal. I've not had GD but I'm a nurse and those numbers are within the normal range.
Did you see the hospital again today? Hope it was good news.]]> Wed, 27 Nov 2013 17:03:55 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43724&PID=5855314&title=gestational-diabetes#5855314 <![CDATA[Gestational Diabetes : Hey all,I&#039;ve done some googling,...]]> https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43724&PID=5854922&title=gestational-diabetes#5854922 Author: angelswings13

Hey all,
I've done some googling, but I can't come up with any specific answers to my questions. Around 28 weeks I took the 1 hour GD test, and I failed by 0.1... (dumb!!) so I was sent to take the 2 hour around 30 weeks, which I also failed by 0.1!! (SO DUMB!!). So two days ago I finally got my hospital appointment, and I've got one of those lovely finger prick machines to test my blood just before eating and 2 hours after eating. So far the levels are all around the same, but I don't know what that means (if they're low, high, crazy, etc!). I am due to see the lady again on Wednesday, but frankly I'm impatient and curious.

If you've had it, what were your numbers?

Currently directly before eating and 2 hours after eating my numbers are always between 4.0 and 6.2

I haven't seen the dietician yet, and I'm not on a specific diet, but I am eating relatively healthy, and I'm certainly not scoffing bags of candy ;)

If you could help, I would love it! Its no big deal, I would just love to know if I'm bad, or good, or fine, or horrendous!

Thanks in advance <3]]> Fri, 22 Nov 2013 15:47:19 +0000 https://www.ohbaby.co.nz/forum/forum_posts.asp?TID=43724&PID=5854922&title=gestational-diabetes#5854922
