Gestational Diabetes General Chatter #3

[Niamh75]

Hello

principessa76 it has makes for a lot of sitting around alright glad when I dont have to do that any more it really does sound so much simpler


Tennykins my last bood test came back perfect that was at easter so i was delighted but staright back to normal this appointment my fasting was high as seems to be always the case with me the Diabetic doc thinks ill have to go on insulin eventually as i was on it last time at the end but if i manage to stay on diet on till 36 weeks ill be happy and sure i know the insulin is not so bad and it will be over before I know it , but your right feeling un well can make them go funny alright

Just wondering do they send you for more scans with GD there Here we get a mini one in the doc room at every visit they just check for movement and heart beat now but later it will be size they dont really send you for a big one on less they want a more detailed scan or if they think there is a problem, Do they tend to induce you early with GD

I had a scan yesterday it was great baby is healthy and so active and a little girl my first but she says she is about a pound now thats not a bad size

I was wondering the same thing about scans too.
I don't know if this applies to everyone else or not but for me, I will be having 1 or 2 extra scans then my previous pg with DS when I didn't have diabetes.

As for the inducing. I have no idea about that.
I was only told by my OB that I wouldn't be allowed to go past my due date. I was a week early with my DS so I'm hoping it's like that this time.
