6 week pp and GD?

thebobloblaw · January 2014

I have my 6 week check up tomorrow and am way more nervous than I thought I would be. But it's actually the fasting labs I'm most scared of. I have not watched my diet at all since giving birth and am freaking out all of a sudden that my blood sugar is going to be bad and I'm going to still be diabetic. I actually had a nightmare last night that I forgot to fast and my appointment was horrible.

Any other GD ladies have any problems or anxiety about this? Am I just being crazy? I am so regretting all of the Christmas cookies.

Just text your blood sugar. That's what I did to ease my mind. I had a cookie and then tested lol.

I have to redo the glucose screening (drink the orange stuff again) tomorrow morning at the OBGYN. I did have labs done through my PCP last week and glucose was fine, so I am not too concerned. I haven't been eating that healthy when I get the chance to eat. I hope you sugar levels turn out great. I still am concerned about what might happen in the future though.

I have to go in a couple of weeks and LO will be 10 weeks at that point. So that's kinda odd. But I'm not worried about it.

I have been eating junk since LO was born basically. I passed my test the other day no problem and I was on insulin and everything.

Thanks ladies, it turned out just fine. Hopefully this will be the kick in the ass I need to eat healthier, I did so well while pregnant!

I have my 2 hour glucose test this morning. I was mostly worried about not being able to eat for so long. I had to fast for 10 hours. That is long when you are BF!
