Gestational diabetes diet
Hi everyone, I am currently 28 weeks and following GD’s diet plan, but I feel hungry all the time. I am worried if it effects baby development? Any tips to cope with this? Thanks

hi. I am borderline GD too at 24weeks GTT. im 28weeks this week too. was told to test blood glucose twice a week with diet diary. I'm also hungry most of the time especially 2hrs after meal. I try to snack healthier like nuts, milk and take food that are lower GI, read the package infor for low GI indicator. there are many fruits you can take that are non sugar like guava, avocado etc. portion your carbs intake is more impt. i stopped all suagry drinks (coke was my must drink in the past) the moment i failed my GTT. if you really cannot take it, then eat what you want for that one meal or one snack and go back to the GD diet. don't over stress yourself, we need to have some cheat meals here and there. I'm also worried about baby development but seems like other mummies eventually gave birth to a healthy weight baby too. all the best, its doable, just need more adjustment and you will be fine.
