I just took my glucose test and barley passed. They told me i should be fine if i continue eating normally because im also amnemic but im only 20 so im not taking any chances. My mom had it with my little sublings so im gona go ahead and start watching what I eat and monitoring my blood sugar. Its not too bad to keep up with. Ill just need to stay away from my husbands cookie stash..
But because im anemic and only 20**
Yes, I got it. I just need to watch my carbs and sugar, eat more protein. After a meal, I have to fast for an hr and then take my blood counts. I'm Going to be 35 wks on tues. I have a dr appointment wed and if he likes my counts I might not have to prick my finger anymore.
I'm 27 weeks with my third boy and have gestational diabetes. Never had it with my other two. It's basically just a diet change. Have to watch how much sugar you eat, count carbs bc they want you to have a certain amount of carbs at each meal. And snacks 2-3 times a day for me.
Could it be related to pcos? Pcos means you're insulin resistant. I'm worried about that also. I'm only 5 weeks but so far I've cut processed sugar out of my diet just in case. ( we'll see if that lasts!)
I, unfortunately, have it.
