I had gestational diabetes with 2 out of 3 of my pregnancies. I was able to keep it diet controlled and went from checking my levels daily, 4 times a day to 3 days a week, 4 times a day. It isn't ideal and you need to be conscious of everything you put into your body, but it's manageable. I saw a dietician which helped, but I realized it wasn't incredibly different from how I was already eating.
I only gained 15 lbs with one gestational diabetes pregnancy and 12 lbs with the other. I was nauseous the entire pregnancies. I will say that I had gallbladder issues with both these pregnancies too which probably didn't help. I wouldn't wish gallstones or gallbladder issues on my worst enemy. Happy to say that the gallbladder issues and diabetes both went away after baby. Best part? Both my boys were born completely healthy.
Good luck mama! If you have any questions let me know. You've got this!
it's not as bad as it sounds I had with my son and I never followed the so called diet they had me on and my son came out to term and was a healthy weight of 7 pounds. and my sugar level on the test was high too.
@allyk.xmommy @aliquez @marisaeileen thank you so much for the support. I truly appreciate it. I am nervous and scared, but I am trying to stay positive.
