Hello
I am new to this thread and i am hoping that you may be able to help or at least give some advice.
I had been diagnoised with Gestational Diabetes last week as they were not able to do the Glucose tolerance Test (3 hour test) as my fasting level was extremely high so i was diagnoised on the spot. Then on Thursday i went for my weekly check and i was put on insulin straight away as my levels were all over the place but my fasting levels were to high.
I am now scared as i have 8 weeks to go and so stressed taht i am going to have a huge baby. Thi sis my second child and i didnt have any of this except for preclampsia. None of my family have had it either and i am confused to why it has happened to me. My levels since taking the insulin throughout the day are appearing to be pretty good and on target but after 3 mornings my fasting levels are still high. I am seeing some doctors on Tuesday and hopefully i will get more info by then but i am just over whelmed with the whole thing and needed to vent to people who understand cause as much as my husband is really supportive i don't think he gets it.
Thanks for listening
Tracy
