Yeah been for my appointment yesterday and got my kit. Asked her if I was over weight and that why I have it and she said doesn't matter if you are or aren't just a case of being unlucky. Just waiting to see the dietician now and got told the same about induction
I found out yesterday that I am. I see the dietitian on Tuesday waiting for my insurance to approve my monitor and stuff. I was high risk of getting it bbecause I had a big baby before but no high sugar levels and diabetes runs in the family I'm black and slightly over weight so I just got it from all sides. They scheduled me another appointment for ultra sound in a month to check her growth.
May I ask are you guys over weight or obese? Im just trying to figure out if you will have more of a chance to get gestational diabetes if your over weight or obese
I just found out I had it yesterday. I'm 32 weeks. I had to go get a monitor and test strips and I have a class on diabetes on Monday. I had an appointment today and she said that of I hadn't had him by 39 weeks is be induced.
I have Gestational diabetes as well I have had it since 26 weeks I'm now 30 weeks in the beginning I had to see a dietitian and have to test test myself 4 times a day for my glucose levels I was doing really well for a while I lost weight but now baby is getting bigger and hard for me to control my sugar I've done everything I can and doc said they will start me on insulin next week just once a day but wish you all the best if you have a question let me know the biggest risk is the baby tends to be big so it's good to watch what you eat
