[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]You shouldn't try to "beat" the test. [b]If you are willing to follow the dietary guidelines and do the blood sugar monitoring with the results of the 1 hour test, then I would think your OB would be willing to allow you to skip the 3 hour...but it would be on the assumption that you have GD and would follow the diet and monitoring, I would think.[/b] I had GD with both pregnancies and with my second my OB and I agreed to just move forward as if I had GD after my 1 hour test. The diet is not that hard and is actually very healthy for you and the baby. Good luck![/quote] Yes, a friend of mine did this and she also was borderline. The 1-hour test made her so sick she decided it was easier to just decline the 3-hour and do the diet. For what it's worth, every time she home-tested her blood sugar it came back normal. [/quote]
