Well today I got the call saying I failed my glucose test. It was so high they aren't even having me come in for the 3hour test. My Dr. is having me go to a gestational diabetic specialist, and I have to take some classes. My nurse said I for sure have it.... I'm trying not to stress, but it's gonna be hard! I'll have to change my way of eating and all that. :( But I'm trying to stay positive, I just want Isaac to be healthy!! <3

Well hopefully you pass girl! None of my symptoms showed up until recently, which surprised me. Having to change my diet has already been a little rough. :/ I don't have to cut out everything, but I can't eat like I was lol. @mandi0101111

see I see faint dots as well and get blurred vision when I didn't eat or sometimes when I drink something sugary. I'm exhausted all the time too like if I ran around all day too. my glucose test is the 9th. so well see then but I been having these systoms for a while now and they still haven't found anything.

I noticed I'm urinating WAY too much. I also see spots when I'm really hungry, and I feel very fatigued. I didn't notice these symptoms that much until recently. I wouldn't have known I had it until they did my glucose test! My blood sugar was 240, it was pretty high. @mandi0101111

@rachel.potts, being overweight, over the age of 30, having a family history of diabetes or big babies are all risks to getting it.

I'm 18, not overweight, but both parents are type 2 diabetic and my first daughter was 9 lbs 4 oz and I was diabetic with her.

I have gestational diabetes too.

I had them with my first daughter and I've had them since I was 16 weeks pregnant with this baby.

they're not that bad, once you get in the rhythm of eating low carb food it'll be like nothing, it doesn't mean you can't eat ice cream and cake or pickles lol. like this morning, my oatmeal made my blood sugar too high but I had taco bell for lunch and my glucose level was under 100!

you'll learn what to stay away from, the finger pricking does get annoying especially 4x a day but you'll be okay. just be careful you don't end up with too big of a baby like I did with my first that resulted in csection and she had low blood sugars and they had to do a heel stick every hour-2 at the hospital and it was sooooo sad. :(

I'm not really sure.. I'm gonna learn more about it at the class, I can let you know then! My nurse did say that it's not what I be been eating, its just how my body is reacting to the pregnancy. I eat the same.things my other pregnant friends eat, and they've all passed. So I'm not really sure if it's preventable or not. @rachel.potts

@shaykayla, is there a certain reason why you get it? I'm just kinda curious if there is ways to prevent getting it or not.

Yesterday I went out with my boyfriend went to watch a movie, me and him don't live together yet. but point is yesterday when he was dropping me off his like sleep over at my house witch the mom and dad lives. I said no, his response was why is everyone deciding or making choices for you and their going to do the same with the baby, when I know that's not true. what he thinks is that my mom tells me not to sleep over. So he left all mad. and I felt in my heart that he went on and cheated on me and did something else with an other girl.... and it's 10:51 am now and he hasn't texted me at all. and after he dropped me off I texted him saying what I felt and nothing. I don't know if I'm over reacting or what or what should i do. do i wait until he text me?

Birth Plan Rant I used to be all about getting an epidural, but after research and thinking about it more I want to have an unmedicated birth (this is my first baby). What annoys me is when I say that I'm going to TRY my hardest to have a natural and unmedicated birth people always feel the need to say that I'm crazy or that I'm going to change my mind when I get in that position. Or that epidurals are the best. I do realize that plans change, but why can't people be supportive and encouraging?

I am FREAKING out. I told my therapist I smoke marijuana to help with morning sickness, and she reported me to her supervisor. They referred me to their drug clinic on the 11th, and I'm so nervous because when they drug test me and if it's positive, I already have an ACS case and they will report me to my worker. My friend suggested Niacin, 500mg twice a day for two weeks, but I'm nervous if it's safe for the baby. I'm going to drink a gallon of water a day and try to ingest vinegar....ladies I'm so nervous, if I show up positive I will lose BOTH my kids. My therapist betrayed my trust. Is there anything you guys can suggest to get this out of my system within a week or two? I'm going to go crazy!!!!
