Pregnancy Update
My Dr. suggested I take the 1 hr. glucose tolerance test early at 24 weeks since Addison's birth weight was so high (10 lbs 6 oz). My levels were elevated with the 1 hr. test so I was sent to the lab to take a 3 hr. glucose tolerance test. I got a call from the Dr that those levels were elevated too & I have now been diagnosed with gestational diabetes. I had a visit with a diabetic counselor/nutritionist and received a glucometer. I am testing my sugar levels 4 times a day. It is tiresome & frustrating at times but I will do what needs to be done for our little guy so he can be healthy.
