I just found out 😭
Hello everyone! I just found out I failed my 3 hr glucose test today and have been officially diagnosed by my OB. I have been crying on and off about it all day 😭😭😭 but I’m grateful to not be alone in this and I hope learn a lot and find solace in this group

Totally normal to feel like this. It really knocked me the first time I was diagnosed too. As long as it’s looked after and kept in control, everything will be ok. But what you’re feeling is completely valid x
I’ve just been told too i am gutted 😞
If it makes you both feel better, I got it at 5 weeks this time!
I am devastated that I might not have the water birth plan and natural birth I wanted… I am terrified of being induced…. And constantly monitored and not able to move around…. And of course all my cravings are like chocolate cake and juice and ice cream…. And blueberry waffles!! 😭. I don’t know how I’m gonna survive!!!!

Please dont let this dishearten you, I felt the exact same way when I had gestational diabetes. It can be controlled through diet and even if you have to take metformin or insulin you and baby will be okay. I was on both and was able to control my levels, baby grew on average and was able to have a natural delivery! One thing that helped me a lot was walking! I walked everyday and it made a massive difference. You got this! If you need any advice or support pop me a message, GD is temporary and can be controlled 💕💕
