High BM’s?
Had my GTT done on Friday won’t get results until this week so bough a bm machine to test over the weekend with my normal diet (not the best between Christmas and new years 😬)
First thing 6.3
1hr post bf 6.8
1hr post lunch 9.2
1hr post dinner 8.3
Is it looking like my GTT will be positive so I can mentally prepare for the diagnosis?

My targets are 5.3 and under in the morning and post eating is 7.8 too so if the guidelines are similar then I’d say yes, prepare yourself for a positive result. From what I have read is someone with non GD can eat and drink whatever and not spike! I tried this with a friend (she’s not pregnant) about a half hour after she’d drank a redbull and she got a 5.4 🤦♀️ lol x
@Emma thank you for this, I wondered if they would just be high anyway if I hadn’t eaten great. Guess I’ll find out this week for definite! My first was 10lbs 9oz but I was never diagnosed GD but they said I likely had it and it was just missed

The targets I’ve been given are below 5.3 fasting and below 7.8 one hour after meals. I think it varies by trust!
