I just had my 1 hour test yesterday and haven't heard back from my midwife (I know she wasn't in the office yesterday). I had GD with my last pregnancy and have been monitoring my blood sugar occasionally with this one. Does anyone know what results are ok for the 1 hour test? I used my monitor and got 120 as I walk in the office to get tested and 130 as I walked out.

Well a non-diabetic rarely gets above 100, if you have a 120 reading you'd be told you are a pre-diabetic, anything over that and you are diagnosed as a diabetic....
BUT with Gestational Diabetes they tend to have higher numbers used for diagnosing GD.
That chart is as follows:
| When | Plasma Glucose Result (mg/dL) |
|---|---|
| Fasting | 95 or higher |
| At 1 hour | 180 or higher |
| At 2 hours | 155 or higher |
| At 3 hours | 140 or higher |
