2nd pregnancy, gestational diabetes diagnosis
Today I was told that I have gestational diabetes...again. I had it with my first child, he is 18 months old now. I'm currently 27 weeks along and I failed the 3 hour glucose tolerance test that was given to me on Monday. Tomorrow morning I am going to be picking up a prescription for a brand new meter and test strips. I'm not shocked or upset about my diagnosis since I was expecting it again (most GD women will have GD again in subsequent pregnancies). I am actually pretty excited about using the Glucose Buddy to monitor my levels so that I can show my doctor. It'll be a useful tool to help me have a healthy pregnancy. I just wanted to say hi to everyone on the forum and good luck to the rest of the moms out there who are dealing with GD!
