GD Test-
I'm sure this has been asked but I'm asking again -- I failed my 1 hour test with a 139 (passing is below 129) -- so, 10 points. Is that a lot? If this number isnt that that high, will it likely mean that I'll pass my 3 hour? HELP!

GD Test-
My sister failed by 5 points. She threw up at 2.5 hours into the 3 hour so it was null and void. She was able to do a 2 hour test, although they gave her a hard time about it. Maybe see if you can do the 2 hour.

Re: GD Test-
There's really no way to know whether you'll pass. FWIW, I got 154 on the 1 hour with my first 2 pregnancies. I passed the 3 hour the first time and failed 1 blood draw the second time and was diagnosed with glucose/carbohydrate intolerance. Failing 2 blood draws is considered GD, but I was basically treated the same way even though I never developed GD. This time, I got a 142 on the 1 hour and again failed 1 blood draw with the 3 hour. I also didn't develop GD this time and while I've been sticking to the GD diet and testing my blood sugar, I actually had less monitoring this time around.

GD Test-
I failed my 1 hour by 1 point and still failed my 3 hour. I only failed my first hour of my 3 hour, but they are still treating it as GD and the dietitian I see says that even if you are borderline you still show the same symptoms and characteristics as if you were diagnosed with GD. Thankfully I've only had to monitor my blood sugar and I'm able to maintain with watching my diet and exercise and not have to be put on meds.
I don't think there is really anyway to know. It definitely sucks, but I keep just saying that things could certainly be worse.

GD Test-
The 3 hour test was bad --- the quest I went to did not have air conditioning! - so, between no food, no water, blood being drawn and heat i was so nauseous and thought for sure I was going to pass out. I ended up sitting in my car with the air conditioning on! I had the test yesterday so I guess it'll take 2-3 days for the results. Fingers crossed! and thanks for the info ladies!
