Me. I start insulin tonight
If it doesn’t change my numbers they are changing my c section date
Please look up the book “Real Food for Gestational Diabetes” by Lily Nichols AND the instagram account “gestational.diabetes.nurse”

Yes I was but so far my numbers have been good with eating better I cut out soda and coffee for the most part ive been eating alot alot more veggies like with lunch and dinner mainly eggs and sausage for breakfast. And if I eat like some candy or something decently sugary or sweet I try to eat it after ive ate something high in protein. My doctor had me do a gestational diabetes class thing after I got diagnosed and it was decently helpful plus sent me some links to websites with information on it.
These are the links my doctor sent me kinda general information about gestational diabetes but still. Here are a couple links to websites with trusted information about gestational diabetes:
Https://medlineplus.gov/ency/article/007430.htm
https://www.allinahealth.org/health-conditions-and-treatments/health-library/patient-education/gestational-diabetes/healthy-eating-physical-activity-stress-management/basic-meal-planning
The second link talks more about food and food recommendations and I liked that one it helped me

C-section - 3 weeks
Hey mums😊Is anyone else struggling with how their C-section looks? I feel like mine has created this little shelf that makes my lower belly stick out and the area right above my vagina look puffy or fat. Almost like my stomach and pubic area form a “B” shape.
It’s not that noticeable but I can notice it 😩 I don’t know if I’m explaining it properly, but it’s really messing with how I feel about my body.
Does anyone else have this?
Does it go away?
Any suggestions, products or anything that could help?
I understand I’m 3 weeks post surgery and all, so is still healing and my body is recovering.

Stitches
I am 6 weeks pp. I have stitches from an episiotomy, 3rd degree tear and lacerations. My pain was pretty much better but it’s started to ache again and hurt to stand. Is this normal or should I be worried? It’s not bleeding or anything.

Did you or did you not take your toddler to the hospital after you had your second?
We are trying to cement our decision on how we are wanting to handle the birth of our second. And we unfortunately don't have a village or any family coming to help. So we have to decide between a sitter or if my husband is going to take care of her. But I am wondering if its a good idea to bring her to the hospital or if it might be an easier transition if we just have her meet the baby at home.
