Gestational diabetes?

Question

Soooo I wanted to try and do my own GD test.... I'm anxious for my actual one. So I ate lunch like normal, I have soup, and for the sake of the test a slice of chocolate cake...30 mins later my BG was 176.......exactly one hour later it was 201.....opinions?

Answer

Sounds high. I have GD and my after meal numbers need to be under 130.

Answer

That sounds high. I know for the 3 hour test one hour after the drink your glucose should be less than 180. 2 hours after less than 155, and 3 hours after less than 140. I have gestational diabetes now for the second time. Just don't stress about it too much. Stress can cause your levels to elevate. Diabetes isn't that bad anyways. It just forces you to eat healthy. After my son was born I weighed less than I did before I got pregnant from having to eat low carb for a couple months. There are some positives haha

Answer

Needs to be under 140 for the 1hr test. If it's 140+, you will have to do a 3hr test.
