Gestational Diabetes

Stephanie

Almost there (Due November 23rd) but Gestational Diabetes is no joke!😣. I am so thankful that I am not on bed rest and so far still able to work as a hairdresser but feeling so out of control of my own body has been so eye opening and extremely hard for me. I only have one risk factor for GD and that is that I am over 25. I eat healthy, have never been overweight and have even competed in fitness competitions. No one in my family has had diabetes or GD. I am currently on meds at bedtime because my fasted glucose is what I can’t control even though I am doing everything I am supposed to. I see a specialist starting next week twice a week until the baby is born. It’s so scary! Is anyone else in my same boat?
