Gestational diabetes - advice please !

Hello! I gave birth in September, and also had gestational diabetes under the JR. You’ll have an appointment fairly soon within the next week with one of the diabetes nurses - they’re lovely! They will give you a monitor and show you how to take your blood sugars at home. You’ll do it 4 times a day and put it onto an app. They monitor it remotely. There are then different options depending what your blood sugars are like. Some people manage to diet control it, some need metformin, some need insulin. Whichever path you end up on and how well managed your sugars are then determines what happens at the end eg if you need to deliver early or not. You have extra appointments with the gestational diabetes consultants to help you monitor this and discuss it, especially near the end.
