GD :( I guess that means no cake at my shower next weekend :/ Advice from any other GD ladies out there? I'm going for my education class on Wednesday.

    I had gd. It actually wasn't that bad. The finger pricks suck at first but it gets easier. Also, request cheesecake. The protein in the dairy items in the cake kind of even out the sugars and don't make your blood sugar spike as badly :) I had plenty of cheesecake and it didn't cause me any trouble at all. Good luck!! Also check out the high risk board. Those ladies are awesome.

    Thanks! Also- maybe a dumb question- does GD automatically make you high risk?

    Not really. If its well controlled you should be able to even put off induction. They thought DD was going to be a big baby so I was induced at 39 weeks 1 day. The ladies on the high risk board are full of gd snack ideas though. It's wonderful.
