Oh and with the right diet, there is no danger really for you or your baby. So don't stress about it to much ;)

I read about it in some info books and mails i get: it indeed goes away normally after birth. It means your body doesn't break down sugar as it is supposed to, so it all goes to your baby. It can cause your baby to get overweight and that can give issues at birth. So yes, limit sugar intake, and best see a dietician.

I have it too, it's suppose to go away after you give birth. Your doc should send you to a dieticians. Limit your sugar intake and monitor your blood sugar.
