Gestational Diabetes
i got diagnosed with gestational diabetes, and i feel so horrible. im not sure why because ive been taking care of my food intake. feeling like everything is my fault. sigh this pregnancy has been hard. i dont know how to make myself feel better……#firsttimemom
i feel you sis. every meal i have to prick my fingers to check blood glucose level before and after + inject insulin to keep my bg down. initially the new routine & diet will put you off, but along the way you will take care of yourself better for you & your baby. btw, your placenta doesn't produce enough insulin due to hormonal changes. please don't blame yourself. you can do it. take one day at a time. some days will suck but you were given a gift from above to create lifeform in your little belly. you are more than just diabetes. you can do this. hugs

Read moreI felt the same way too. And still feeling super down at the fact that I can’t enjoy food or sweets like other mummies who have pregnancy cravings. Just going to take it day by day and count down to giving birth. ❤️
Its just a passing phase. I was down for a day or two and was ok after n learnt to accept it. Apparently mine didnt turn out to be gestational afterall.
