Hi everyone,

Just thought I'd pop my head in here. Have been diagnosed with GD again which is a bit of a bummer but seeing as I did it all last time, it's not such a big shock to the system this time. Bit of history on me. Was diagnosed with GD at 29 weeks with Amy and kept blood sugars under control with diet and exercise but Amy still decided to arrive 3.5 weeks early and still weighed 7pound4! She would've been pretty big at full term methinks! Had my GTT at 9 weeks post birth mainly cos I couldn't face doing it at 6 weeks and unfortunately was diagnosed with impaired glucose tolerance so was prepared to have GD this time around. had to have the GTT at 18 weeks this time so we could start controlling early so joy, I have 20 weeks of monitoring compared to 7 last time! Doesn't seem so bad this time around though having to do the monitoring. Last time seemed like it was never going to end but this time I guess I'm a lot more relaxed. And because my diet never went back to the way it was because of the IGT we haven't had to make too many changes to my diet. Yay! Still wish I didn't have it though. Let's hope this time around I can keep it under control again. Sorry for lack of personals but just had a chance to pop my head in quickly and so haven't read up on your journeys yet. Will do so now.
