I have gestational diabetes! :sadeyes I have to go to a pregnancy and diabetes class this weds.

I'm sorry. it isnt too bad tho. I know Brandi had it this last pregnancy and once she got her diet reworked all was well!

G'luck to you

good luck with everything, callie!!

(though i'm about to come stalk you down and take a belly pic :tears i wanna see your belly)

I need to find someone that will let me steal their camera. lol!

I'm sorry sweetie good luck with everything I'm sure it will all turn out fine. :D

I'm sorry sweetie :hugs

It'll be okay! If it's nothing serious then just some diet adjustments will do the trick. Poking your finger 4 times a day or more does suck though.

i am sorry!! i just found out that i failed my 1 hour test and i have to go back for the 3 hour test!! i am just a little scared......
hopefully you will be ok and you won't have to do too much changing and it will go away once the baby is born!
good luck

:goodvibes :hugs

Aww, that sucks I'm sorry.

By the way for the belly pic, you just meet up with me and I'll take the pic. ;)

It's okay, Callie. Its nothing you've done or haven't done right. So, don't worry. Most of the time, it can be completely controlled by diet and you won't need insulin. Just be really strict with your diet or they will put you on insulin shots. My diet was very doable and actually helped me keep off all the extra preggo weight that most people put on in the end. They'll have you eat more protein, less carbs (And the carbs you do eat will be whole wheat and whole grain, for the most part), small servings of fruit, lots of veggies and no juices, limited milk (2, 1-cup servings a day). Its pretty easy to follow. Its actually very similar to weight watchers or south beach diet. :)

The finger pricking is no fun but you really do get used to it and once you figure out the best places to poke, it doesn't really hurt. My fingers got sore from constantly pricking them but it became second nature.

If you need anything or have any questions, just let me know! (L)

Thanks yall! I had my class today and it seems very do able. Your right Brandi it is kind of like WW.

hang in there if you want to talk i'm here for you I had gd and now i'm a diabetic so I know what your going through
