Craving for sweet food

Im 25 weeks preg and been craving for sweet food. Trying hard not to eat those. But does that means i likely have GDM? I read online and it said craving for sweetness might be due to GDM. Nw i am worried.... :(

I guess it’s normal to crave for sweet food while pregnant. When I was pregnant I was also craving for sweet food but I control my sugar intake. Everything order less sugar and try to limit your sugar intake. Try to share with your partner instead of having one whole portion for yourself

Hormones mess with our choice of food but craving for sweet food doesn’t mean GDM. I craved for spicy and high carb food too. GDM has no symptoms and if you’re worried, check your blood sugar level on your next appointment. Hope you are fine

I really feel its quite normal to crave for sweet food during pregnancy . Just take in moderation , and don't take sweet stuffs everyday . Drink plenty of water to balance
