Should I be worried about gestational diabetes?

Hi all,
I have a quick question.
Currently 31 weeks, and have already taken and passed my gestational diabetes test a few weeks ago. In the last couple of days I've been feeling weak, shaky and sick after I eat, not before.
Has anyone ever experienced anything like
this?
Thanks in advance!

I had GD and didn't have those symptoms. It certainly won't harm you or your baby to cut back on sugary food.

Gestational Diabetes won't make you feel like that, it would be low blood sugar that you are thinking of for those kind of symptoms. If you had GD you would have HIGH blood sugar, as your body would not be producing enough insulin to get the levels down.
Not sure what is causing you to feel weak and shaky but it won't be gestational diabetes.
