Dear Jade, I'm so sorry for what you've been through, with the miscarriage and now this diagnosis.
It is possible to get gestational diabetes more or less from conception. I am a member of a fb group GDUK and some ladies have had it from 1, 4, 5 weeks... These are ladies whose pre-pregnancy blood tests were diabetes free. It seems to be a condition where there a lot of unknowns. So more tests are *definitely* in order.
Stay away from the insulin and enjoy your wee one. They grow up so fast! I will keep you in my prayers. Be well,
Hannah

Hi Jade. Welcome. I am also a type 1 newbee. My son's chicken box triggered mine three weeks ago. Still getting used to things the same as you. I inject twice a day and on metformin.
My insulin started at 18 and I am now on 5 per injection.
It seems a combination of weight loss / honeymoon period / sugar and low carb diet does wonders to keep me above 5 and below 10.
Welcome to chat if it helps but the breather the insulin / metformin medication gives any beta cells left does make a difference at this early stage. David.
