Did I fail? I’m pretty sure I did

Question

This is my 3rd pregnancy but first time anything like this has happened I’m nervous. I’ve never been a huge diet watcher while pregnant and I know with numbers like these I’ll definitely have to be better but I’m not sure what they are going to do. Any advice? Anything really would be appreciated I’m not sure how I’m going to do this.

Answer

Yes, but you'll be okay. 💙
Talk to a dietician, your OB, and they'll set you on the right track. 
It's definitely another hoop to jump through, but in the end it instilled more healthy eating habits in my home and more food respect. 
You didn't do anything to make give yourself diabetes, you didn't eat too many carbs and get diabetes. But now what you eat will effect your health more than ever. 
Good luck!

Answer

Yeah definitely looks like you did, I had GD and you’ll be okay, just manage the carbs you’re eating and limit yourself to eating smaller portions..
Also by the look of your fasting levels I reckon they’ll put you in insulin

Answer

Definitely failed. The place I went to wouldn’t have even done the test and automatically diagnosed gd with just the fasting number. Your ob should set you up with a dietician to determine the best course of action. Definitely cut the carbs and sugar right away
