My family has been telling me the sizes of their babies and its scary! 9 and 10+ pound babies....
This is my second baby since ive been diebetic and my 1st was 6lb 11 oz
That's what I do too. But my Dr put me on insulin while I'm pregnant. It must be working because my blood sugars have been great. I'm just scared that I'm going to screw up and hurt the baby. Plus I also want a littler baby
Im pre-diabetic.Type 2 of course. When I found out I was pregnant I immediatly quit taling my Metformin. I now only consume 170 carbs a day. 45 at each meal and 15 for each snack. So I eat roughly 5 times a day. I don't eat super late at night. I do cheat but its usually like that I combine my snack and take a walk around the block. It's much easier said then done though. At first I had to look at lables and write every thing out in a food diary to keep track. Now if my meal is 45 carbs or less then I don't even worry about it. Also something that helped me was getting my family on board. Make your hubby eat what you eat. He needs more carbs so his portions are bigger. I have a very picky daughter so we gove her Ensure. And she loves it. Just trying to keep my whole family healthy. What motivated me to do this was so many women have large babies with gestational diabetes. And I'm a whip. I want a healthy smaller baby. Is that wrong of me?
Hi i have type 2 diebetes too. Are you on metformin?
So how are you doing with keepong it under control? I think I'm making myself sick with worry that it's going to affect the baby
