I hate this diabetes stuff it's annoying and frustrating
@swann.khadijah, especially if this is your first
@swann.khadijah, ask your doctor you're early and still got a lil bit to go. I would ask all the questions I need to know
@swann.khadijah, yeah you can I never fully talked to my Dr about it tbh
@antwonika, me too! I think it's because I get so frustrated driving to my dr office I hate driving lol. Have you gotten it checked again. Can you get preeclampsia at the end of your pregnancy I'm nervous about getting it
@swann.khadijah, yeah I have it bad on my moms side to especially high blood pressure. My blood pressure was pretty high for my last appointment & I don't know why.
@antwonika, oh oh diabetes runs hard on my moms side so I went right in I knew I was going to have it 😩 I pray it goes away after
@swann.khadijah, no ma'am I don't think so I found out I had the GD.
That's good I think he will be good. Were you a diabetic before you were pregnant
@swann.khadijah, yeah it's normal I'm only in the 70% percentile. So he's gaining pretty fast but not to to much.
@swann.khadijah, he's going on 7 pounds now
Lol nooo that's why I'm having a csection because he's getting to big and plus I had gotten torn with my first son and I still have problems down their and if he's going to be big I don't wanna get torn worse than I already am
@antwonika, ahhhhh but baby can't be that big because if he or she was they would have induced you right?
@swann.khadijah, that's why my baby is gaining because my sugars are constantly high. I don't think they really wanna put me on Medecine tbh because I'm about to be due in like 2 weeks
@antwonika, nope he's right on track! My sugars aren't high so he's doing good
@swann.khadijah, like gaining a lot of weight? Mines is fat and he's gaining way to fast like a pound a week.
@swann.khadijah, oh wow is your baby big?
@antwonika, yea they have me checking mine four times a day. I'm on metformin. They wanted me to take it every time I eat but I changed it to one time after dinner. It's a pill the pill isn't bad but it makes you go number 2 a lot. That's the frustrating part and I pray I don't have to go on insulin.
@swann.khadijah, no ma'am I'm about to be due in a few weeks so I got to send my write down of my sugar levels every Thursday tell I'm due & if they are too high still then you are going to give me Medecine but I'm not to keen on taking any medicines or insulin
@antwonika, ok that's what I have do you take medicine for it?
@swann.khadijah, I don't know I never asked I don't have regular diabetes I have just gestational diabetes,
@antwonika, yea they told me it would be later in my pregnancy if I did get it but I don't know when exactly and it is my first.
