big wake up call today

Adika • just a bomb ass mom who all her dreams came true when i gave birth to my son. wifey since nov 2016
Had a big wake-up call today at my 28 week appointment was told I was dehydrated I still have a lot of sugar in my pee ...I went ahead and classified myself as gestational diabetic instead of doing the 3 hour glucose test again. ... so now it's really hitting me that I'm not as healthy as I thought I was and every single thing is affecting my son and I need to be more careful... I'm also measuring a week and a half ahead that's because sugar intake and I'm going to have a big baby... I'm classified as high-risk now... I have to start being seen every week and I'm just kind of taking all this in and realizing this is my fault my child should not have to go through any of this especially before he enters the world. I have these last few weeks to turn it around ... Also have to start taking iron pill and chewable vitamin C and doing kick counts... so wish me luck ladies for a healthy rest of this pregnancy... but on a good note I myself have only gained 6 pounds so I'm happy about that
