Don't be scared!! It's great that you know and you can now do something about it. I have a pretty healthy diet and I'm not hugely overweight but I've just found out I have it for the second time. Some people are just prone to having it, you haven't done anything wrong!!

Look on the bright side you will probably get to see your little girl more now as they will monitor more closely. You didn't fail her though. Its very common to get diabetes and its only for a short time and will be gone and you will be holding your little girl. Its already may and july is close.

Awe, don't be upset, and you didn't fail your daughter! I know how hard it can be to not want a ton of sweets and things while pregnant! You can google gestational diabetes, and learn all about it! Good luck hun!
