I had GD with DD1. levels were 9 after the 2hr test. i met with a diabetic nurse specialist and endocrinologist and was given 3 weeks to control it with diet and exercise. unfortunately it got to the point that i was practically starving myself to get "safe" levels so i went on insulin at 31 weeks and was induced at 39 weeks (gels only) and DD1 weighed in at 7pd 14oz and 50cm long - so not massive but she went into scn due to low blood sugars.

DD2 the jury was still out on whether or not i had GD. even though my test after 2hr came back at 7 (normal range) i continued to do the ***** tests and was getting levels at 9 and even 11. i did the 2hr test again at 32 weeks and it still came back at 7 but i had heaps of amniotic fluid and Bub was measuring big which concerned me and my ob so i opted for induction at 38 week 1 day (arom only). DD2 weighed in and 9pd 4oz and 54cm long.

eta : she was also admitted to scn for blood sugar issues. so even though according to the two tests i did with her i didn't have GD, my ob and i think i did...
