Those are symptoms of gestational diabetes?! I go Monday for my three hour test. But I’m also experiencing those symptoms.

I have GD my doctor said that’s gonna get worse for me but that was my first sign of it before failing the GTT

so what does that mean for baby?

I passed my glucose test, and I constantly have dry mouth and have to pee. I think it’s just part of being pregnant.

for someone that has SEVERE anxiety and ESPECIALLY about this topic (I have my three hour Monday) THANK-YOU for easing my anxiety some! I TRULY appreciate you!

I pass my glucose test and I have dry mouth specially in the morning and pee is very normal to go constantly because baby is pushing everything and we have to drink a good amount of water every day 🤷🏻♀️

this is reassuring! Thank you!

Thank you ladies!! It definitely makes me feel better as well knowing that it is possible to pass your glucose test with these symptoms.

she will possibly be a little bigger the normal but as long as I test my sugars daily and eat right then it shouldn’t affect the baby at all

every pregnancy is definitely different for sure and I wish you all the smoothest healthiest experiences possible. I’m just sharing my experiences thru it with the symptoms I had. idk if eases your mind at all but my age and weight factored into me having GD as well as so you can definitely be possible to pass your GTT with those symptoms

how old are you? Apparently my nurse practitioner said I’m too old to be having a baby (I’m 35)

I’m only 33 and my doctor mentioned I was pushing the line. That’s why I’ve had so many complications. I think it’s because I have RH- and my partner had Positive blood type but what do I know. We still want to try for number 2 and everyone keeps telling me I’m too old to have babies.
Im also a little over a year out of thyroid cancer surgery. Total thyroid removal and was on a weight loss journey when I got pregnant so they weren’t happy I was over 125 when I got pregnant.

sorry I know that question wasn’t for me but I will be turning 41 this month don’t let those comments bother you everyone is different my doctor said women are having babies much more older now days

yeah, exactly! That’s what I thought when she said that. That nurse practitioner is very bitter!

How did your test go for the glucose? Everything came back normal for me and I hope everything came back normal for you as well!

yea! Everything was normal! Now if my blood pressure could chill out, I would be golden! Currently at labor and delivery getting baby checked out because he hasn’t been moving a lot.

Oh no!! I hope he is okay!

yes he is! Just got discharged.

That’s great news!

yes! Thank you so much! I was terrified!
