31+1 = 7 weeks or less to go. I believe it will be sooner, my blood sugars are getting harder to control/starting to get headaches as well.
I hope I make it until November 6 which is 37 weeks, and enough time for us to prepare everything.
My last two pregnancies were medically induced at 36+6 for pre-e, and induced after active labor at 37+3. No problems.

@blessed2018w9 I'm diabetic and insulin dependent already not gestational ... But the further I get, the harder it is to maintain even with insulin. They will just induce me earlier with the complications. Not worried about a specific date other than for baking and preparation purposes.

@blessed2018w9 I actually rather take insulin then oral medication like metformin, with long term use it does have a lot of side effects - either way I can't use just metformin anyway because I'm insulin dependent.

@blessed2018w9 What have your levels been, are you exercising and eating well?
blessed2018w9·
@angelfoodcake I'm on 1000mg of Metformin and mine are going from 95-108 other morning was 140..this pregnancy has been the hardest to control out of the other 4 times..I do eat what I'm supposed to I'm anal about it but nothing i do is working and exercising is not in the cards i have SPD can barely move my legs to get up or sit

@blessed2018w9 Gotcha, well your numbers aren't too too bad, honestly. Sometimes it very hard to get fasting to go down. Are you eating a protein snack before bed and waiting exactly 8 hours to test?

They may also up your metformin to help.

@angelfoodcake I was eating cereal b4 bed but it wasn't under 95 like they want my morning testing to be so I've recently switched to eating yogurt b4 bed...I've seen alot of ladies say that mine isn't bad but I dont know why the Dietitian says it is and wants it under 95 in the mornings

@blessed2018w9 I would eat something like peanut butter/ a few crackers, a meat or a low carb fruit with nuts - cereal typically is high in carbs and low in protein...
