Failed 3 Hour GD Test by a Few Points??

Question

Anyone been diagnosed with GD when “barely” failing the 3 hour test? For example, my fasting was 4 pts out of range, 1 hour was 3 pts out of range, 2 hour 45 pts out of range (SO weird), and my 3 hour was in range. I understand regardless I failed, but has anyone had similar results and was not diagnosed with type 2 diabetes after pregnancy? Also, were there any complications with your baby once born - hypoglycemia, etc.? My dream is for my baby and myself to be healthy after birth...as if this never happened! :(

Answer

My fasting was 0.2 out of range ONLY and I was diagnosed. It’s pass/fail, there’s no borderline. Being induced on Wednesday but baby is healthy and looking good.

Answer

I failed the 2 hour by .1 and passed the first two. You’re at a higher risk of T2 diabetes, but as pp said, breastfeeding can make a pretty big difference. I also plan to stick to the GD diet, at least 80%, even after I have my baby.

Answer

I was borderline and they had me do blood testing and diet controlled. There’s not really a grey area
