Hi Janet, The 1 hour result is irrelevant. It is the 2 hour that counts as they aren't able to utilise and excrete the excess sugar. So, she needs a consult with a GDM midwife or endocrinologist (whatever you have)if her fasting BSL is >5.5 or her 2 hour is >8. I hope that is clearer.

Need more info. Is that the one hour result or the two hour result. If it is the two hour result she needs a consultation with a diabetic nurse or Dr and it is high.
