Diagnosed with diabetes after GD

Kristin • Mom to 2 beautiful boys 💙💚

So just a little background to fill you all in... I was diagnosed with GD early on in my pregnancy with my son. He was born at 37 weeks weighing 7 lbs 8 oz so he was on the larger side but perfectly healthy. When he was 7 months old I was having some symptoms of diabetes so I checked my sugars and they were in the 500s so I had to check myself into the hospital. They observed me overnight and said I needed to see an endocrinologist to get on insulin and get my levels down. It’s been about a month now and my levels are really good and I’m on a healthy diet. The only thing is my husband and I were planning on trying for our second child in about 3-4 months and now I’m worried I am not healthy enough to get pregnant that soon. I would never want to put my baby in danger. I do plan on talking to my OBGYN but just wondering if any other moms have experienced something similar and have any advice. Thank you 😊
