Dr Liz just called with my blood test results. My blood sugar is 78, which is normal. Apparently anything below 100 is within the normal range for not-pregnant people. For the gestational diabetes test specifically, glucose levels should be below 120 two hours after a meal.
She also said that my hemoglobin and hematocrit are also normal, so I don't look anemic at all. This is a plus, because much of the time when I'm not pregnant, I'm borderline anemic. I know this because sometimes I can't donate blood because my iron levels are too low.
