Got this notification from my obgyn today... could it be gestational diabetes or actual diabetes that I never knew about? I don't feel as if I have it symptoms wise... suggestions please!
You should be doing the 3hr first before they confirm from my knowledge.. that's what I had to do
@olivia113, I did at 28 weeks. Wonder why so early?? Good thing tho. If you waited who knows..
@morganmommy79, yes! He had me do it with my prenatal bloodwork I read that online too that most get it later in pregnancy
Gestational! You don't have any symptoms. They will probably ask for you to do a 3 hour to make sure
No its just the gestational diabetes which usually you won't have any symptoms for it. That's why its called that cuz it only appears during pregnancy and goes away afterwards. And also why most women are surprised when they actually have it. Definitely get it taken care of though. If left untreated, it can cause premature labor.
My blood pressure was high every time so I had to do the 3 hour test and that's when they diagnosed me with it.
