So I did my 3hour glucose test and it was still elevated they are sending me to a diabetic educator because I have gestational diabetes,😔 it’s just so discouraging that I watch what I eat and how much I eat and I still have it. This has been such a stressful pregnancy and it’s my first child it makes me not want to have anymore 😢

GD is very very very common in a first pregnancy. Sometimes it doesn't really matter how well you eat, you can still get it. You'll just have to change your diet until baby is born and eat what is recommended. After you give birth you can go back to your normal diet most likely. My first pregnancy was very stressful too, I didn't have GD but I had a lot of other issues mentally and physically that I never thought about having another for a long time, then I got pregnant again shortly before my first turned 2 😅

Try not to stress over it too much. I had GD with my son and I felt so defeated. But once I met with the nutritionist, I felt much better. I was eating good (all I wanted with him was fruit), I just had to cut back and add some other things to my diet. GD is very common tho.

I didn’t have GD with my first and now I have it with my second. At first it was very difficult to process but once I got all the information I learned to adjust. It’s definitely not a walk in the park but it isn’t so bad either. I hope everything works out for you!
