So I just found out I have gestational diabetes which is really bumming me out. Any tips, suggestions, anything? Just really stressing me out and giving me bad anxiety.

Ok i see. That's how it happened for me. I had to wait to hear from the nutritionist. Luckily it's early in the week and hopefully you get an appointment set by the end of the week and can be seen early next week.

GD is not your fault. I'll message you tomorrow morning after i get my kids to school etc. And I'll set up a gd group too. Take it easy tonight. Everything will be ok.

@arivera64, no my nurse told me that they would hopefully call me and tell me when the appointment is. Apparently they set it up for me. So I'm kinda just winging it until I know what I specifically can have and what not. And I'd really appreciate that. Idk why but it's got me pretty depressed. I didn't have it with my son so it's a whole new thing for me.

@mom.life_usa I personally only have experience with gestational diabetes, so I'm gonna go with that. Of course others are welcomed to join if they have helpful tips they'd like to share.

@a.arms95 I can give you some helpful info in the morning 😉

@arivera64, no I don't think there is. And I haven't seen a nutritionist yet and the nurse told me to look up what I can eat she wasn't very helpful so I'm at a complete loss. I've been on google for the past couple hours trying to figure some stuff out. I do better with specifics. I don't need medication for it as of now but I do have to be on a diet and do the finger pricks. Which I have to go get the thing tomorrow for my pharmacy.

@mom.life_usa is there a diabetes group? If not, I can start one up.

Sometimes no matter what you eat your numbers might suck. Just keep trying different foods to see what your body will agree with. Don't be too hard on yourself. Follow your food plan. Get a little exercise each day. Walking is really good.
