Gestational diabetes diagnosed but baby weight and BMI normal

Hi, i was just diagnosed with gestational diabetes last week, now is week 28. My private gynae didnt mention to do finger prick, just say control carbs and sugar intake. Im worried how to monitor if dont finger prick and no dietician referred to as well. For GD, do we need to see endocrine doc? Any suggestions what i should do now besides eating healthy and exercise? Am quite worried.

I'm from govt hospitals. They are very strict. I only failed by 0.4 on the post 1 hr glucose test and they asked me to prick fingers to keep track. I opt out of dietician as it's optional. If you are worried, just buy the accu check instant glucose meter yourself to track. I think it's good to keep track also, at least I know what spike up my blood sugar now. White rice is really the worst.
