I tested high on my 1 hour test and going for my 3 hour in a week.  Regardless of results, I want to put myself on a healthy diet/eating pattern for the last 3 months of pregnancy.  My mom had GD with me which developed into diabetes she still has today.  Im willing to eat/avoid whatever I need to for healthy pregnancy.  Please advise.  Thanks

    It really depends on how well your body can work with carbs.  My initial numbers from the nutrionist was 30 carbs per snack (three times a day) and 60 carbs per meal (three times a day).  For some girls, this is way to high so they have to lower their carb intake.  If you do fail the 3 hour, and need to start testing, you'll learn very quickly what your body can handle.

    Happy to help with any other questions!
