Yepp I have it too though we already knew there was a high chance for me to have it because so many people have diabetes in my family. I started eating healthy though I still eat some junk food and my baby is right on track for how much she is supposed to weigh. Don't worry it happens atleast now you know and can help yourself and your baby.

Yep! I had it with my first but not with my second. It ***** but when you can control it its worth it. My girl came out 6lbs 7.9oz. Nice and small! So it made it worth it. Once you get the hang of it it isn't so bad. Fill up on meat and green veggies and limit everything else. Going out to eat is harder but any place that has a burger you can get it without the bun and voila! A diabetes meal.
