Gestational diabetes rant

Just feeling like going on a small rant right now.

I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes about two weeks ago and since the coronavirus is around everything is being done via email/phone. They mailed me a packet that took over a week to arrive which I finally got to review and I’m waiting for my phone call conversation with a dietician. Just feeling really frustrated because it’s been two weeks and I have yet to have a diet or check my sugars. Not sure if these two weeks will affect my little girl? I have been trying to eat better and reference information I have found online as well as sample info sent in the package, but I’m not going to lie and say I have not had burgers and wings since then. I have for the most part had healthy meals with veggies and fruit. Also, I’ve been walking 10-20 minutes after each meal. From my understanding the dietician is to advise on a meal plan? Like give me the amount of grams I am to consume each meal? So frustrated. I just don’t want my little babe to be harmed while waiting. The dietician is available Thursday’s so that’s when I will be having my phone appointment.
