Anyone diagnosed with gestational diabetes?

goosemrs

I am about 27 weeks pregnant with my 2nd baby, & just found out yesterday that I have gestational diabetes. Anyone going through the same thing? What kind of changes have you made? :ohwell:

I had that with my 3rd child. The good news was I was 118 healthy pounds when I left the hospital after giving birth to a super healthy baby girl.

So listen and follow the plan and you will be fine!!

BTW neither one of us has diabetes now and she is 21( thank you God)

I had gestational diabetes with my 2nd pregnancy. I was able to count my carb intake and avoid insulin. Exercise will help to decrease your sugars--I would walk on the treadmill at 2 mph after eating a few too many carbs and it would help so my sugars weren't as high. Just do what they say to do and you will have a healthy baby. I actually lost weight in my third trimester and was able to fit into my pre-pregnancy pants one week out. :noway:
