Hey im 32+3 weeks pregnant with a lil boy. Recently been diagnosed with g diabetes controlled by diet at moment just wondering if anybody else has / had it n how.they got off with birth If induced, c section n weights baby was

[swhite26]

It depends how bad it is n how controlled I believe. If insulin is needed believe it makes baby bigger again. Just wanted some personal experience stories if n e one got any diet tips aswell. Yup gor 8 weeks at most left . But its helping me eat healthier. N curbing my weight gain

i had suspected gestational diabetes, so did the diet. but i had a natural birth and baby was 7lbs. 2 oz. so i didn't truly have it after all. sorry i don't have more to share. i didn't get induced and baby wasn't too big. my aunt did and her baby was big but she still had a natural birth.
hope everything goes smoothly for you

I don't get it. I wouldn't have thought it so serious... Icky. I mean we have less then two months to go, you know? I eat healthy so I'm concerned with what they may say. I really hope someone has more knowledge.

U don't see at a lot on here regarding it, it's been hard to adjust specially since I found out 3 days before Christmas , I do have to b seen more regular now every 2 weeks at hospital n I get scanned each time . N not allowed go to my local birth centre midwife lead has to b hospital.
