Thanks for the well wishes and I'm crossing my fingers cause I so don't want to have to be forced to change my diet etc - I really struggle with enforced diet control - Dad is a Type 2 diabetic so I have the long term chance of getting there anyway and I know what I should eat and drink etc and outside of pregnancy have been trying to ensure my majority of foods are back on the straight and narrow but during pregnancy I'm not so great unfortunately and to be forced to make a change sends me craving even more anyway I'll worry about that when and if it happens.
Thanks everyone for the well wishes. I'll pop back in when I know my results.
One hour was 8.1 and I failed the second. 2 week later I'm on insulin as even having 2 wheatbix and milk would send me over. Only risk factor was my age as before getting pg I had a BMI of 24.8 and none of the cultural ones apply to me.
At the end of the day it is not about the chocolate cake you ate last week - but if your pancreas can cope with 2- 3 times the usual load.
Thanks for thinking of me rose. The test went ok although everything I drank for the rest of the day tasted like lime. Am still hanging out to see whether I get a call from the OB or not cause he said he'd only ring if I failed so my theory is if I can get through today without a call I must have passed.
