Feeling hungry but I’m also having Gestational Diabetes

Question

Ever since I got to know I have gestational diabetes, I have been strictly on my diet and meal time. But surprisely, I get hungry more quickly than before. I felt so irritated cos I am just so worried to see if my sugar reading falls beyond the acceptable range. Should I just eat what I want cos I am worried if baby is hungry too? Will the gestational diabetes still stay in me even after I gave birth if I didn’t control my diet? I’m so in dilemma now. #pregnancy #advicepls

Curious, how many weeks are you? I realise i get very full easily nowadays. Sometimes i can only eat 80% of my yong tau foo.. I eat western at times n my sugar sometimes shoot 😅 i also feel worried that it doesnt falls in the acceptable range (ive 3 exceeded readings tis wk!).. tink my doc gonna make noise.. Once we have GD, there is a higher chance of developing diabetes in later part of life. Saw tis somewhr. But the reading definitely differs from our strict range now. I worry more on affectinng my ger. I try to snack blueberries (read that they help).. and i agree.. they actually recommend to eat 3 meals n 3 snacks. But i usually either snack once or i dun at all. 😳
