This failed glucose test is going to throw me into a depression. I can't deal with all the…

did you fail your 3 hour test, too?

This is my second time with GD it's not so bad mama ask the dietitian to help you make a plan that works with the food you want and like

@levleah, yes I did. I have to meet with a dietician on Monday and I guess there is the possibility of needed insulin shots because my numbers were so hug 😔😢

High*

oh honey, I hate that for you. I'm sure the nutritionist will help you come up with a good meal plan.

It's super hard. I've broken down multiple times a day in tears since I found out I failed because I'm always hungry and can't eat anything @levleah I really hope the dietician can help me otherwise this will be a long last 10+ weeks for me @2novbabies

I cried a lot when they first told me, both times, I'm always hungry as well and it sucks. I eat whatever foods I like just in the portions my dietician suggested and not gonna lie sometimes I mess up and just pig out and then feel like crap for it but my numbers are never high they're only high on the actual test it's hard to stick to the plan, I used to drink soda like crazy and then I cut it out except for rare occasions and that actually made me feel less crappy.

Though I have already started planning the huge meal I want after baby is born lol

you can eat, you just have to have smaller portions more often of the healthy stuff...cheese and eggs are great..lower all bread intake til then..thd dietician can give you more detailed info...research gestational diabetes recipes...just breathe...this is my 3rd with it and each one has been different ..

@2novbabies, I want to try because I want to have a good time at my baby showers. But this time of year is so hard with Halloween candy everywhere and thanksgiving coming up. I already plan on a few cheat days such as baby shower and thanksgiving but I'm so scared of hurting the baby or missing out on my plan to have a natural birth and end up with a c section. I'm very scared and I'm feeling myself get very depressed throughout the day knowing I can only eat this and that. I'm so hungry all the time

@mrs.meow, ..... 😢😢😢 I have my first glucos test on tuesday ... and I'm nervous cuz i barely drink water i like to drink lots of juice & sour candy

Plenty of people have natural births with GD, I had a csection with my first but it wasn't due to GD it was because of my induction. Halloween is tough for me too I was pregnant last time during Halloween too

For me it wasnt hard bc i didnt crave candy at all but just portion out your candy. If your active as well its not so bad. If u have insulin that helps when u have ur cheat days. But portions and lower the breads and noodles youll do great. GD doesnt have to be hard. My brother is a full diabetic (found out two years ago hes 20now) we thought it was going to be really hard but it isnt. Its harder when ur pregnant bc cravings and emotions but just gotta do it. Thanksgiving for us is turkey and ham so if thats the case meats are free points i know u had stuff to the turkey and ham but its not so bad. The other thing that really helps is a support group. If its us ladies on here then we will surely be ur support:-)
