Thanks ladies for your replies

emc2, forgive my ignorance but is there a link between GD & preeclampsia? I only ask because, while I didn't have GD with DS, I did end up with PE at the end of the pg with him (he was also a big bub & had issues with BSL's in the 1st week).

Melbel, thanks for the website recommendation, I'm off to check it out now

This is all very confusing though, one of the websites I looked at earlier stated to stay clear of saturated fats (found in dairy). MrsS, in the meal plans, do they recommend low fat dairy?
