High-Risk Pregnancy

GD ladies I have a question

I was disagnosed with being borderline gd so I have been following the GD diet and testing my bs 4x a day...I have been keeping my numbers pretty much under control...I do occassionaly during the week go off the diet and eat something that I am craving...I email my numbers to my doc every week I dont change any of the high numbers the highest I've gotten is in the 190's after pigging out a family bbq, but my dr never seems concerened about this...since my pregnancy I've lost 25lbs... well I think I let all this go to my head in the past couple of weeks I got on the scale today and it said I gained 5lbs in 2 weeks and now I am freaking out.  Last week my numbers were on the high side a few times after lunch and dinner (around 130-145) but when I emailed my numbers she said they were fine and they were still in the normal range average for the week.  At my growth u/s at 32 weeks the baby weighed 5lbs and was considered average and was expected to way 8lbs at birt but I rememeber reading that at this stage I am supposed to gain 1 pound a week and the baby is gaining a half a pound a week...if I just gained 5lbs please tell me she didnt gain 2 and a half pounds!!!! 

DH thinks I am overeacting and I am probably am especially since my dr just doesnt seem conerened about any of this...what do you ladies think??

  • Those are just guidelines for weight gain and every person gains differently.  There is a good chance you gained most of it in water weight.  I would just get back to your diet to keep your numbers more under control and not worry about weight.
