[QUOTE="Juicyj, post: 2069252, member: 53162"] Hello and welcome to the forum [USER=508265]@yolo85[/USER] I was a little earlier than you as I was diagnosed at 23 weeks, but thought this was late and went straight onto insulin for the duration of the pregnancy, coming off it once my daughter was born, I am type 1 now as I was diagnosed 3 years afterwards after falling ill one week whilst on holiday, but this is rare to develop t1 after GD. It's incredibly hard so late on to suddenly make great changes in your diet, have you seen a dietitian to review your current diet and see where changes can be made ? Also have you been given a blood glucose meter ? Personally I haven't heard anyone so far being diagnosed so far into pregnancy, so it sounds like your in a unique situation here, the issue with GD is baby absorbing all your sugars and growing to a large birth weight, hence why controlling glucose levels is important, but you should be on very close watch now too with your team.
