[QUOTE="azure, post: 1529016, member: 39639"] Hi [USER=427435]@Ven83[/USER] :) First of all, don't blame yourself. You acted perfectly reasonably pre-pregnancy and saw a doctor for a test :) You didn't cause your Gestational Diabetes :) Unfortunately, my answer will probably be what you're expecting. There's no way to tell if it's GD or Type 2. Having said that, your results are pretty good so GD seems likely. As I'm sure you know, a number of women who have GD go on to develop Type 2 in later life. But many don't, so it's not a foregone conclusion by any means. In GD, the fasting sugar is usually the hardest to keep down. Some ladies find a small supper time snack can help. [/QUOTE]
