Well, I got up at 5am this morning (*yawn*), took a shower, grabbed my crocheting, and went over to the hospital. The nurse took my blood, then gave me the stuff to drink. It tasted just like orange pop, but I chugged it any way. The nurse kept telling me not to throw it up or else I would have to come back another day - but since I didn't have any problems with the stuff at the 1 hour test, I didn't think I would have any problems (and I didn't).
I really hope my OB calls and tells me I'm ok - my fingers hurt from the 4 pinpricks to get my sugar tested.
Here are my levels:
Fasting: 102
1 hour: 174
2 hour: 127
3 hour: 102
The only one that I figure I failed is the fasting - generally it should be below 95, but since I only failed one of them, then hopefully I'm ok.

Sorry love, you failed the one hour as well. Your numbers should never be above 140 unless you have just eaten. I was gestational diabetic for both pregnancies. Don't worry, I highly doubt that you will have to do anything but watch your sugar intake.
This was the scale though:
Fasting blood glucose level ≥95 mg/dl (5.33 mmol/L)
1 hour blood glucose level ≥180 mg/dl (10 mmol/L)
2 hour blood glucose level ≥155 mg/dl (8.6 mmol/L)
3 hour blood glucose level ≥140 mg/dl (7.8 mmol/L)
Hopefully, if you do have it, it will go away once the baby is born, anyway. Just be careful what you eat.
Yeah. One of those moments that I am glad to hear that I was wrong. I forgot about how much sugar is in that first drink.
