Yesterday I went in for my 26 week checkup. All was well, my weight is good (for starting out overweight before becoming pregnant)- I have gained a total of 10 lbs so far. Blood pressure measures well, my anxiety and depression is stable for now, belly measures on par and heartbeat was 156 with lots of movement. My ob said everything looked great! Then I did the 1 hour glucose test. They also tested my iron levels again because they were low last time...

So this morning at work I get a call from the lab- i failed my glucose test by 8 points so they want me to come in for the 3 hour test. And my iron levels are lower than before so I have to start taking supplements. My emotions are a roller coaster so i start crying in my cubicle where all of my coworkers can hear me. I feel like I am already failing my daughter and she is not even born yet.

Has anyone failed the glucose test by 8 points and passed the 3 hr one? Not looking forward to fadting 12 hours as that makes me sick and missing more work to s5iy in the hospital for three hours. Sorry for the long post, just hoping I am not alone!
