Morning,
Hope everyone got some sleep, I'm finding it either too hot, or to uncomfortable to sleep all that well, and youngest is having another of her can't sleep/won't sleep episodes, so it's a bit hit and miss. DH keeps telling me how tired he us, and wondering how on earth we will cope if DD doesn't start to sleep through fully soon, and how the pre-schooler is going to cope sharing a room, with shorty baby! (Tbh) she'd sleep through most things, so I'm hoping it all works out).
Hope things have settled for you cookie and ilove
GD ladies-reading back, don't forget that fat content affects how quickly your sugars rise too, so chips are usually better than say mash potatoe, and chocolate (dare I say it) is better than sweets like haribo.
Trick is, I've found, to reduce carb portions- as they contain high levels of sugars, eat very little white carbs, limit sugar, eat fruit after meals, not as a snack, and increase protein intake and salad stuff.
Oh and as a cheat, if I need a bit of chocolate, I'll always have that early in the morning, after my breakfast level is done, then it almost always is ok again by the pre lunch one 
I was told yesterday, that everyone becomes more diabetic as pregnancy progresses, those of us with GD need more help controlling it, but it does mean that the plancenta is working well and therefore it's not so much a bad thing, it just needs to be controlled a bit.
