Gestational Diabetes
Hey everyone, so I changed hospital due to W move at 33 weeks and they wanted to test me for GD because my mum had it when pregnant (she was 43). (Previous hospital didn’t think it was a concern)
Turns out I have it and after a week of testing my blood is always above the threshold sometimes even double. I barely eat any sugar, I have no fizzy drinks (only drink water and 2 cups
Of milky tea) I’m healthy, 27, active and I’ve only put on just under 2 stone so it’s very hard to get my head around! I’m all bump!
I’ve got a review next week with the midwife. I’m 34 weeks now, do you think I’ll have to have medication & how likely is it to have the baby earlier. I read online they can induce you at 38 weeks?
My last baby was 8pounds 3 at 39 weeks
Any info would be great thank you
