She has been able to control it with diet and exercise. She just says no to all sweets (like chocolates and desserts) and says that both exercising and drinking a lot of water helps.

I only had to deal with diabetes for three week with Benjamin for the same reason (diagnosed at 30 weeks, born at 33 weeks). :) <br /><br />If this baby stays full term I'll have 300+ finger pokes to live through. But I suppose that's better than having her come early...except that really gestational diabetes is no fun...but neither is a NICU baby...*grumble* Nancyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08631734965938273438noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-33624978.post-81907700670519502462015-03-10T14:10:02.434-04:002015-03-10T14:10:02.434-04:00This post made me never want to get pregnant again...This post made me never want to get pregnant again! Sorry about your levels. Luckily you only have ten more weeks to go right! Crazy to think this is when Cheetah was born.

So...I guess I'll schedule that 3-hour test now.<br /><br />For lunch I had broccoli topped with spaghetti sauce and cottage cheese and I took the kids for a "diabetes walk" after.

We just didn't do the 20 week test, because I had a history of never passing it. So we knew we were looking at the 28 week test for sure, so the goal from the beginning was to pass that one. Which I did! Yeah! No finger-poking and fewer doctor appointments with specialists or nutrionists! Downside was nine months of eating like a diabetic.
