I had GD in my first pregnancy and I'm hoping I don't get it again....

I'm sure it ups my chances though...

    Yes, I had GD for my 1st pregnancy - and my 2nd. During my 1st pregnancy I controlled it by diet. For my 2nd pregnancy it came at 7 weeks and I was on insulin by 12 weeks. I'm already monitoring my bs levels and following the diet for this 3rd pregnancy. Baby girl #1 was 6lbs, 2oz, and baby girl #2 was 7lbs, 2oz :). Good luck! I hope you don't get it again... but chances are that you will. :(

    I had it with my first which thankfully was controlled by diet.  With my 2nd, I failed the one hour and my doctor had me take the three hour just to see what the numbers would be.  He was 90% sure I had it but guess what?  I passed!  I still checked my blood sugar daily to make sure all was well (it was) and I definitely tried to stick to the gd diet for my own reasons.  I didn't adhere to it as strictly as I did when I actually had GD, of course. :-)

    Hope you are one of the lucky ones that don't get it again!
