Pregnancy diabetes - part 2

hi beyonce. i am so sad upon learning about your condition. i know how hard it is to have diabetes because i know some people who has it. but i don't know anyone who has pregnancy diabetes. it really sounds bad from what you said. what i can tell you is that be strong and think that it will be fine in the end. just treat it as something you have to do for your baby. its easy to follow your diet when you think that way. and as long as you have self-discipline, then i think you would be fine. ^__^ i am hoping for the best of you, i will pray for your good health and also for your baby. ^__^ God bless you!

I had a friend who had her baby last year and was diagnosed with gestational diabetes. Most of the time she ignored what the docs told her about her diet. She ate what she wanted. She had to give herself injections 2 or 3 times a day. Her baby was not too big, like they warned her he would be if she continued to eat however she wished...BUT he was born with multiple problems that may have stemmed from her negligent dieting habits. I cannot imagine how difficult it is to change your whole life in one instant like that- to never have been sick and then have to suddenly diet, give yourself injections and all of that must be awful! The good news is that for most people it all goes away after you have the baby! My friend did not have diabetes any more after her baby was born- she is back to normal and eats what she wants! But they did warn her that she is more at risk for type 2 diabetes later on in life. I am actually on the opposite end of the spectrum as you are- I have very low blood sugar and my doctor told me that I absolutely MUST eat every few hours and to eat or drink something sweet if I suddenly feel light-headed, dizzy or weak. They didn't have to tell me twice!

Hello beyonce03,Thanks for your post.My friends wife had much more complications than you and I was with them from begining till her succesful delivery in 2005, she and her baby is doing absolutely fine, so dont worry, just relax and follow all the advices of your doctor dont get tensed yourself, doctors know how to deal this situation but dont forget to visit a doctor once in two weeks for a checkup.I wish you all the best.

I have a friend who added red mushroom to her diet. It is now capsulized named gano excellium. This helps your pancreas to function and this is also good for the brain for you and your baby.
