Question

So my first born I got gestational diabetes.  I'm expecting my second baby now and I'm terrified to get gestational diabetes again. I've lost 83 lbs, took a whole year. I don't know what I could do from getting it again. I eat differently, drink more water then anything. Excercise daily. Did anyone go through it twice?

Answer

It’s worse for me, 2nd time. But it’s genetic and not a weight or health issue. I couldn’t prevent it and will likely have type 2 after delivery or as I get older. Keep doing what you are doing bc it sounds like you’re really striving to be your best self. ❤️❤️❤️

Answer

The chances are higher if you already had it; but sounds like you’re doing all the right things! Just keep doing things healthy and if it happens, you’ll handle it!

Answer

2nd pregnancy currently. I was told it is rare that I am doing so well. I am not on insulin yet this time and hoping to not be on it or much later in my pregnancy. Nothing has changed health wise for me and so the doctors just think I am pretty lucky lol.

Answer

I had gestational diabetes with my first but passed the test with my second. I didn’t do anything different with either pregnancy. A lot of it has to do with hormones and placenta. So it is possible!!!

Answer

Always been super healthy and skinny. Had it with my first and now I have it this time. I think mines genetic to be honest

Answer

Loosing weight sadly has nothing to do with gd.and you have higher chances with your second pregnancy
