This episode is a real crash course in gestational diabetes.  I was lucky enough to be interviewed by the lovely Mon from The Middee Society, who is a practicing midwife., who also offers face to face and online private birth classes.  This is a recording of the episode she released over on her podcast, so please enjoy!

We cover: 

• What gestational diabetes is
• Why we test for gestational diabetes during pregnancy
• Why you may be diet controlled vs insulin controlled
• How to modify your diet for balanced blood sugar
• The midwive's perspective of gestational diabetes
• How gestational diabetes might impact your pregnancy care, labour, birth and postpartum period
