I'm high risk with gestational diabetes & with an incompetent cervix so I have a cerclauge.

Currently 27 wks.

I'm planning my Babyshower for June 13 I will be 34 weeks and 4 days on that day.

My concerns/worry is what can go wrong like me going into labour early ?
I'm hoping I don't and everything goes smoothly ....

Tomorrow I see my specialist and cardiologist. I've already Began seeing my ob every 3 wks....

Any help other people similar stories are welcome and thank u in advance

Sugar*

I have GD, but I able control it by diet. I fear insulin cause I don't think I stick myself with a needle.  I had GD with my last pregnancy to control by diet.  Dr said both times if I can't control my super by diet then insulin it be. Yikes!  So i rather give up sugars and sertain foods and limit my intake. I'll make 36 weeks be 37 on 28th Tuesday.  Stay strong ok :) hope you have a healthy baby.

I'm sorry to hear that u have to use insulin. Hang in there we're almost there.

That's good I had to take insulin so I'm on one before meals and another insulin before bedtime .
My specialist has me checking after an hr of every meal under 120 its tough! Before the insulin I would be high after the hr but two hrs be normal.
Lucky you with two hrs check but as long as our babies are healthy

I try to control it by dieting, it's not easy but I have to do it for the lil one. I have to check my sugar two hours after every meal.

[pritigrl15]

I'm trying not to.
I just didn't think of it until now...
How are your sugars?
are you controlled with diet or your on insulin?
Sorry off topic but your the first person who has a similar situation to me just further along! So awesome

I'm currently 33wks and 4 days.  I had my baby shower on Saturday. I'm also high risk, I had to get a cerclage at 20wks and I also was diagnosed with gestational diabetes. My advice to u would be to take it easy and don't worry too much. Just listen to what ur doctor say and make sure ure hydrated at all times. I wish u all the best, just take it easy and don't stress too much.
