I wish that everything is okay and I pass my 3hour glucose test. So Friday I had to do my one hour glucose test. I wanted the jelly beans over the drink. Well that didn’t work, I had to eat 42 in 5 mins, I started to eat about four at a time and couldn’t even swallow so I spit it out. Initially they told me I would have to come back. But since I didn’t swallow, they went ahead and let me do the drink. I wish I would’ve just not over thought it and started with the drink because it wasn’t as bad as people make it seem. I got the orange flavor, it was ok, it was also cold so that made it better, the only thing is it made me very warm like I had to fan myself. Also had to drink in 5m. Well turns out mines was elevated but they are not worried until I go back for the 3hr to determine. This is my first pregnancy, did any other mommies experience this? OneWishADay
I failed the 1 hr test with my 1st baby and had to do the 3 hr test and was diet controlled. With my 2nd I failed the glucose test so bad on the 1 hr in my 1st trimester that I didn’t have to do the 3 hr I almost threw up when I was drinking it. With my last baby I was checking my sugar as soon as I found out I was pregnant and when I went to my 1st appointment I showed my Dr my numbers and didn’t even have to do the test he said just start your diet you know what to do. I hope you pass your 3 hour test and don’t have gestational diabetes. If you do have it just know that It can be managed and controlled by diet and I can try to answer any questions you may have.
I don’t know but that drink wasn’t bad!!! I thought it was like a slightly sweeter version of sprite and I love sprite
Anyway I hope you do great!!! And if not it’s going to be okay!!! They can manage it and so can you but with that being said I hope you are totally free of gestational diabetes
Yes I was afraid because I don’t drink any type of soda in fact anything with a fizz. So when people kept saying it taste like a flat soda I was thrown off. But yes not bad at all. And thank you so much. ![]()
Wow thank you so much for sharing that. Yes I will see at the 3hr test, if I’m not mistaken I have to go somewhere else for it. I do eat lots of carbs, all baby has been wanting is potatoes so I know I will have to slow down
. But I won’t beat myself up about it until everything is confirmed and like you said just diet from there. I appreciate you. Your amazing to overcome it with multiple pregnancies. ![]()
I didn’t have jelly beans as an option. I did choose the orange drink though! I thought it tasted fine. I got really hot and nauseous from it though.
That’s all my baby wanted too. The diet wasn’t too bad and it was basically low carb/keto but I if I ate enough protein I was able to eat a few more carbs you learn what your body can handle I couldn’t have a lot of fruit it would spike my numbers.
These look like a way better option!
Ok yeah that don’t sound too bad. I don’t eat red meat. But I’ll have a burger from like five guys or in n out since I been pregnant and like breakfast sausages that’s about it. So yeah we shall see lol
I couldn’t even remember the last time I ate jelly beans. I kept telling myself ok they’re skittles. Nope didn’t work, couldn’t even swallow lol
Omg the carb cravings are for real! I crave them breastfeeding
