Doctor told me yesterday I’m high risk 😢

Found out yesterday at my 10 week appointment that I have diabetes and high blood pressure.

They said I was probably prediabetic before pregnancy and then becoming pregnant just pushed my body into being actually “diabetic”, although they’re calling it gestational diabetes for now.

They also put me on blood pressure medication yesterday and I’ve felt so dizzy today after starting it. They said I’m at a high risk for developing preeclampsia too 😢 I’m only 26, and thought it wouldn’t be so hard on my body because people told me I was young so I’ll be fine but so far this is hard and I’m still in the first trimester I know it’s only going to get harder.

Feeling down about it, and kind of beating myself up 😢 baby looks great thankfully but I wish I wasn’t having all these problems. I’m terrified of preterm labor now due to my issues. Guess I just needed to vent.... thanks if you read this.
