Hey KimB,
I've read heaps of women on here who have been positive for the GCT 1hr screening, but gone on to be fine on the GTT (2 hr)... including women with lots of risk factors such as high BMI, close relatives with Type II Diabetes, PCOS etc... some were absolutely convinced they would have it! So I hope that's reassuring for you - there seems to be a high rate of people failing the GCT but not having GD from what i"ve read. Hopefully some of them will see this post & reassure you as well. I remember reading them all when I went through the same thing.
I did end up with GD, but the dietary changes really aren't too bad (I think i'll be back at pre-PG weight much quicker - yay) and the needles for insulin really are very little tiny skinny things that you don't feel (not like needles to take blood or anything). PLUS heaps of people with GD don't even need insulin anyway.
So I'll send you good vibes that you'll come through with flying colours![]()
