Very early, gestational diabetes

Jacqueline • First round of chlomid in early January. BFP mid February. Miscarried at 8 weeks. First IUI August 7th & 8th. Second IUI Sept 6th & 7th. 2 failed IUI’s. Third IUI Oct 6th & 7th. BFP on 10/19.

Hey all I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes at 12 weeks. My dr tested very early because I have pcos and apparently more than half of women who have pcos also get gestational diabetes during pregnancy. I was sad at first but have moved on and need to do what is best for baby. I was just wondering if anyone else is in the same boat with me.

I take 4 shots of insulin in my stomach every single day and 4 times a day I prick my finger to test my blood sugar.

I’ve lost weight and not gained even though baby is growing perfectly. Dr is not concerned with the weight loss since I changed my entire diet around.

Please tell me there’s someone else out there going through this.
