[QUOTE="Jaxx01, post: 591061, member: 37714"] Yes there's no point overly stressing about it tbh. I used to have a craving for milk, full fat milk but I think that's about 9g carbs per small glass and I was drinking pints :/ I got around it by having a highlights hot chocolate? Only around 4g carbs. See carbs are the real baddies BUT being pregnant you still need a healthy amount for you and baby. Hopefully, on Tuesday they will give you some dietary advice!! I was given fortnightly scans.from 28 weeks and the weekly in the last 4 weeks :) once you've met your consultant Tuesday you will most likely have to go and see the diabetes midwife once a week, they should keep a close eye on you. Try not to worry too much about the size etc of baby just now. Grab a pen and paper, and write as many questions you can think of! For example : dietary advice, what will happen at time of labour, will you be induced etc cos you can bet your bottom dollar there will be something you will forget lol.
