Mild Gestational Diabetes

Jordan

So I’ve been diagnosed at 23 weeks with mild GDM. I’ve opted to go ahead and start monitoring blood sugar levels just to be safe even though my doc doesn’t require it with such a mild diagnosis. I have no risk factors, but the doc said Insulin resistance tends to pick up during 24-28 weeks of pregnancy and I’m praying mine does not. My weight gain has been perfect, my blood pressure is perfect which are good signs. My stomach is measuring 5 days ahead so he is slightly bigger than average. Anyone else? Figured we could share diet and exercise tips and just support each other.

Side note: Go figure the advertisement below my post is for Reese cups...:my absolute favorite. Only 16 more weeks and I can have one lol
