Gestational Diabetes

Elisa • Married 2ectopics, 1 ovary. First FET 2/13/19-BFN Second FET 4/3/19-BFP Boy/Girl Twins

So I took my one hour glucose test. It came back elevated so after the 3 hour test I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes. I was devastated. I work shift work and it’s already difficult getting adequate rest. I meet with a nutritionist this Wednesday and then for the next 10 weeks I’ll be testing my blood sugar 4x’s a day. BLAH!!! 😒

Such a bummer! I was diagnosed early because I was borderline prediabetic prior to pregnancy. It hasn't been as difficult as I anticipated. It is a nuisance testing 4x a day though. Thank goodness it's only temporary. You got this woman!!!

Awe that sucks. I appreciate tour input. Thank goodness it’s only temporary. If I can keep it under control I won’t have to take insulin. 🤞🏾

No need to be sorry, it’s quite common, especially in twin pregnancies. I gotta tough it out for a little while longer
