STM+ with GD

Have your STM's were you able to give birth naturally? I want to be able to give birth without being restricted to the bed which is a definite possibility. Has anyone been able to? Or should I just stay home as long as possible to ensure I can go med free as long as possible?

    Although I am a FTM, I also have GD and have been wondering about this, too.  I was told I will probably need an IV of insulin during labor, and I'm worried about being confined to the bed, not being able to get in the tub, etc.  I would love to hear stories about natural birth with GD!

    I just delivered my second son may 3 and I had gd and tested + for group strep b. I didn't have to have insulin, but was hooked up to an Iv and wireless monitors my entire labor and I delivered pain med free. Just dragged that Iv pole around with me, even got in the tub. You can do it!v
