Hi, currently pregnant baby#3. For my #1, I failed the glucose test n had GDM. For my 2nd, I also had GDM but my results were higher than 1st. I took metformin for 2nd pregnancy. Now I'm worried for the 3rd pregnancy I just found out I'm pregnant.
1st baby: didn't do postpartum test (can't rmb if required to test but need to aft 1yr of giving birth) but was pregnant b4 1yr
2nd baby: do postpartum test and result still showed I failed. So the nurse told me to follow up 1yr at polyclinic, pregnant again b4 1yr test
Is it possible for my 3rd if I didn't get GDM? I'm currently trying to limit my diet n try to take lesser carbs whenever I can. I'm also eating in lesser portion now. GDM really makes me feel so useless as a mom. I know it's caused by hormones n placenta but I can't help feeling so down abt it. Is there any other way to help bring down the sugar levels without relying just on meds? And also is it possible if I had GDM again but don't require to take metformin?
