Failed my initial glucose test-- and I'm 🤬

Aylsa

In 2016 at age 26 I was pregnant with my first child. When the time came for the glucose test I failed it which prompted the three hour glucose test---which I passed with flying colors. I still ended up having a large baby that was delivered via cesarean due to not only being large in weight and length but also his skull was incompatible with my pelvis and wasn't coming out THAT way until only after trying to push for what felt like hours. Now it's 2019 and I'm 29---I failed the initial glucose test AGAIN!?!? Now they want me to do that three hour glucose test!? 🤬 It's been three years since my cesarean. My OB doesn't do VBAC so it's another c-section for me. Cool---not gonna fuss over that. What pisses me off to no end is the guilt trip these nurses put patients through if they question the results and honestly don't want to do the three hour glucose test. That restest sucks ass. I'm still going to have a larger baby--we saw that from my ultrasounds and my husband was in fact a larger baby than anticipated by the medical norms 30 years ago. I was the runt compared to my brother and sister's birth weights---chalk it up to genetics. I asked the nurse if my PCOS (diagnosed 2018) may have been a factor in the glucose levels failing me out of the range limits desired...all the nurse wanted was for me to schedule the retest retest retest. I don't have the patience to deal with a staff member who doesn't want to take the time to TRY and help me connect the dots. It's not about finding the time to do this test or medical bill later. I don't want the test to be like the last one....fasting...drinking...shaking...poking....shaking....more poking....wanting to puke. Then pass the test only to have another large full term baby delivered cesarean perfectly fine...Tell me I'm not the only person who this has happened to or feels like this in this situation? My delivery is already scheduled for September 26th (39 weeks) pending any changes or going into natural labor.
