Controlling Gestational Diabetes to control weight gain...

I haven't been on here in forever, however, I made my goal of 135lbs a few months ago!!! Just when I got back to my pre-pregnancy weight, we find out we're expecting! lol

Due to the massive amount of weight I gained with my last pregnancy and how huge my son was, my doctors are pretty sure I developed gestational diabetes late in the pregnancy, so they're watching me like a hawk this time around. They want me to watch my carbs and try to cut back a little bit. What the heck does that mean? What's a little? I've never paid attention to carbs before! I know it's basically cutting out pasta *sob* and switching to wraps instead of bread, but other than that, i'm out of ideas.

Anyone else pregnant and dealing with this, too? Any thoughts?
