Hi ladies
Have you been diagnosed with gestational diabetes? If so, please join this thread to share experiences, diet, information on the type of antenatal care to expect, birthing plans etc!
I was recently diagnosed at 18 weeks. Very early indeed! My mum has type 2 diabetes and I'm of Chinese ethnicity so higher risk. I'm currently jabbing myself 4 times a day to test blood glucose levels. Seeing the dietician next Tuesday and hopefully the diabetes obstetrician the following Tuesday. Was scared out of my mind when the midwife told me the complications. I really hope bubs grows to be strong and healthy!
Anybody else been diagnosed early? If you have been diagnosed at all please feel free to join!
