Gestational diabetes- you too?

Question

Just got the news today. I meet with them next week to learn more. If you have dealt with this- share your meal ideas, especially breakfast, cereal that's okay to eat, and what you eat for treats- those are the things I need really good replacements for!!!!

Answer

I'm switching Dr's because mine got my test results 3 days ago and still hasn't called me to tell me I failed and what my next steps are. I only found out because they post your results online...

Answer

I just found out the same yesterday :( Stinks but with some lifestyle changes we will be fine!

Answer

Just found out today and go on Wednesday to get all the info and start my insulin. Had it with my son and was insulin dependent, so it's no surprise for me.

Answer

As you guys learn more or have figured out stuff along the way, please share! It's a lot of new information and kind of overwhelming. Trying to figure out especially where to get my treats and snacks and cereal in 😋

Answer

I was diabetic before I was pregnant, though it was managed with mostly just exersize and a very small dose of metformin. So I've been taking my blood sugar since week 9 of my pregnancy! I'm just basically counting carbs and eating lots of protein with it. I am having triplets, so they actually want me to eat a ton, which is hard to do, but you'll be okay! Just know that you can't really win in the fight against hormones, so tell your dr what you need to keep the baby safe.
