BLOOD SUGAR | Why you might not get gestational diabetes straight away if you do an early glucose test (but might get diagnosed on a second test)

5 minutes

Questions you might have about gestational diabetes: 1. Why did I pass the glucose test at 10 weeks but then get diagnosed with GD at 28 weeks? 2. I was only slightly over on the glucose test, was I misdignosed with GD? 3. Why was my blood sugar easy to keep in range when I was first diagnosed, but now it seems impossible? 4. Why has my blood sugar suddenly got a bit easier to manage now that I'm 39 weeks? Today's podcast episode is short and sweet and gives you the information to answer all of these questions. I'll also be sharing a visual on instagram to help make sense of things so keep your eyes peeled for my post. Hope it helps! x *COACHING AVAILABLE* Oh by the way, in case you missed it - I have space to take on new clients! I offer 6 week coaching programs for women with gestational diabetes (and those postpartum) who want to feel confident in what they're eating, GOOD in their body, develop sustainable healthy habits and have the brain-space to actually enjoy their pregnancy, while achieving balanced blood sugar. DM me. Let's chat.
