Gestational diabetes
What are the symptoms and signs? How early does it show in your pregnancy? I've looked up in prenatal books and sites and all the answers vary.
I'm just wondering from someone who has actually had it, what your experience was.

^^ that's true too , also if you don't watch your sugar closely your baby will grow fast but he/she won't for right , or also diabetes can lead to fetal death .
As far as i know, there's no symptoms or signs. You get tested and you just either have it or you don't.
I failed my 1 hour but passed my 3 hour test. My friend has gestational diabetes though. She has to check her blood 4 times a day and she saw a dietician. They monitor your baby more because mom's with ga, tend to have bigger babies.

6 weeks after you deliver they'll test you again to see if you still have diabetes
I found out at 28 weeks through my glucose test , I really didn't have any symptoms . But if you have it your ob will refer you to a diabetes doctor which you'll see every week until you deliver . After you deliver they'll test you again
