03/08/08- I got my glucose test back and I have gestational diabetes again. I got those results back on 03/03/08. I started testing my sugars on 03/04/08 and they are high. I meet with the nurse midwife that also handles with patients with diabetes on 03/07/08. She said that my sugars are too high too soon in the pregnancy she believes that I had diabetes prior to getting pregnant. I have this week to get my sugars under control but the midwife does not think I will be able to just by diet alone. She believes that I will have to take insulin. If that is the case I will have to travel over an hour way to a high risk doctor. I am worried about the baby. I going to work as hard as I can to get my sugars under control with diet. My fasting level is high, that worries me that I will have to take insulin. Besides worrying about the baby I am concerned with the extra cost of traveling to the high risk doctors and the extra expenses. My family is being a great support. My mom is helping me come up with good ideas for meals. I am really worried and scared right now. I have read books and looked up on the internet about diabetes. I have seen all the possible problems the baby could have. I am scared I have caused harm to the baby not knowing I was diabetic before getting pregnant and not having my sugars are under control. I am praying that all is ok. I go back to the doctors on 03/14/08 and see what the next step is.
