Juz - just remember that your baby will be affected by your GD once he/she is born. Controlling it as best as possible (insulin or diet controlled) means your baby won't have as many complications after birth. I would do what the doctor recommends as if you need insulin, then take it. My baby was in the special care nursery for 2 days with a tube into his stomach to help get his blood sugars stabilised and I controlled my GD very well with diet and exercise. I would hate to think what would have happened if I didn't and I felt sooooooo guilty as well for not doing more.

Good luck hun!!
