Is that bad? The app say he should be wieghing less. /: I have gd & this is so stressful and hard when u eat right and it still is not where my specialist wants me. /:
How did u do it?
Any other mommies go through this?
I've only gained 4pds so far /:
I'm good when checking my sugar after two hrs which it being under 120 but now they want me after the hr under 120. After Every meal.

All for my little man I hope he's ok and makes it . my miracle baby.

I would not worry too much at my 21 week ultrasound doc said baby was weighing a lil over 1 lb and at 26 baby is a lil over 2 lbs and I don't have gd and the doc didn't seem concerned about baby going too much

This app is not very accurate sometimes  on the size of baby. It's just an average. If doctors are not concerned, do not become distressed about it. You have a healthy baby. Congratulations.

I know exactly how u feel i felt like i failed with my bub i controlled my sugar well and thought i did with my levels to but they were never happy i was on metformin than they added insulin my levels were roughly the same. Than they upped my insulin dose than it became to low so they backed off a little bit downing my insulin to at night only. They predicted my babys weight at 10lbs + by 39wks they decided to induce and 8hrs later i had a very healthy 7lb 14oz baby boy! They were way off wuth weight and im very angry they treated me like i was a bad mum that couldnt control my sugar only to have a normal size baby!! Trust urself darlin and dont let them upset you u are doing the best u can dont be to hard on urself! Goodluck ♡ much love to u

At 24 weeks my tubba weighed roughly 3.3lb and has always been above the average. At my 36 week check up they said 8.1lb again above average with a while to go. Don't worry about it I'm sure your health professionals will pick up if it's too fast. My advice hold off on newborn sizes just incase! :)

Seems like ur damned if u do and damned if u dont. U need to eat for babys health but then when u do they not happy with ur levels. Just keep doing ur best and definitely tell ur specialist how ur feeling. Mummy stressing us no good for anyone. If u are really worried call ur dr or midwife for some advice :)

I'm taking levemire pen 10 units nightly I was doing good but now that they want me more controlled its tough I literally can't eat anything for it to be below 120 so which is why today is my first day with novolog pen 3 units 15 mins before every meal & so far not working for the am part. I ate 1 egg cooked it with coconut oil and a toast my sugar spiked to 139 after the hr. Its scary since this is the first week my baby gets some sugar /:
Thanks for your help I have my specialist appointment on the 25th hoping things get better and I don't have to be stressed and scared and in Virge of tears /:

I had gd in my first pregnancy and it is stressful. Talk to ur gd nurse and let her/him know how ur feeling. My understanding is that if they ferl ur not able to kerp ur sugar where it needs to be they will look at insulin shots. I found a ten min walk or even some house work after each meal really helped to bring my sugar levels back down. But u need to speak with ur nurse to find out what excatly the want u to be doing/eating to get the required results. Gd is a sliding scale and some women can not control their levels with diet and exercise alone. And if u are one of them u dont need to be beating ur self up fir something that is out of ur control
