Gestational diabetes: How to prevent?

I am at risk of getting gestational diabetes. But I cannot possibly cut out all carbs during my pregnancy, right? Any advice, mummies? What did you do to prevent it?

Dont have to cut all carbs. Change to wholemeal products. Eat smaller portions, increase no. of meals. For example, hv 5 small meals a day instead of 3 big meals. Do some light exercises if u are okay, like jogging. Or walking if u cant jog. No sweet stuffs (I.e. sugar, ice cream, milo, anything that is high in sugar content). Eat more vegetables.
