Today I found out that I have gestational diabetes. When I took the 3-hour glucose test on Monday, my glucose levels were high in 3 out of 4 blood draws.
Next, I will be referred to a perinatologist, a doctor who specializes in high-risk pregnancies. I'll learn how to manage my diet and diabetes during the last 3 months of my pregnancy.
Although I wish I didn't have gestational diabetes, I'll do whatever is necessary in order to ensure a healthy baby and smooth delivery.
