FTM here. 34 years old currently at 7w4d. I took a 3 hour fasting glucose test today and failed it... thought for sure I would pass but definitely didn’t!!!
They said I had to get tested early because of my BMI (it’s 30) I’m 5’9 215 and according to by gyno I am at a healthy weight.... obviously I could probably lose a couple lbs but who can’t!?
Im kind of beating myself up about it and super upset to have to be on a big ol diet while prego. I eat healthy for the most part... lots of veggies and meat.... carbs sometimes and ice cream here and there but like seriously nothing bad, I don’t even drink pop!
Just kind of nervous and am pissed at myself and am hoping to find some other mommas out there who can ease my mind!!
Re: 1st trimester Gestational Diabetes
It took me a few weeks to get over my pity party and adjust but once I figured everything out it really wasn't that bad at all. Smaller portions of carbs/sweets and pairing carbs with protein are key!
You can do this! ❤️ ❤️
