My sugar came slightly high in the test and now im honestly a bit scared. Im 26 weeks. How risky is it actually for the baby and me? would love to hear from someone who had it.
I had gestational diabetes in my eighth month and my doctor helped me manage it with a customized diet chart. I just followed her advice strictly and everything went smoothly, so please consult your doctor.
Gestational diabetes can be risky if left uncontrolled, but it is very manageable. Your doctor will monitor your blood sugar and suggest a proper diet or insulin if needed. Just stay in touch with your gynac.
Yaar, don't stress too much about it. Yes, it needs attention and you have to cut down on carbs, but so many moms have normal deliveries even with gestational diabetes. Just follow your doc's diet plan.
Well, it definitely takes away all the fun of eating ice cream and sweets during cravings! But jokes apart, as long as you manage it with diet and your doctor's advice, the baby will be perfectly fine.
I had high sugar during my pregnancy, but with strict diet and daily walks, I managed it well. My baby was born completely healthy and breastfed beautifully. Just take care of your food intake.
