Hello! Pretty sure I have gestational diabetes, waiting on my 3 hour glucose test. Would welcome any tips and food ideas!

    Whilst Keto is proven to help diabetes without a doubt don鈥檛 do this unsupervised by your health care provider. Cutting all sugars & artificial sweeteners is one thing, reducing carbs whilst pregnant way out of my experience.  I hope your results prove negative but we will be here for you either way & very best wishes for your forthcoming happy event. Is this your first baby? 馃榾馃尫

    Oh yes _ so agree on this while pregnant. That鈥檚 so time limited (!). I went purely non-toxic during my pregnancy. No artificial anything no booze of course. Then dropping out the sugars, not necessarily all carbs. Eat as healthy as you can. Then once baby鈥檚 born you鈥檒l be so busy. Plus if you breast feed,  that often drops some weight on its own. Then on later, this might well be the thing to try if you still want and need it. Good luck and best of warm wishes for your upcoming !

  • I had gestational diabetes when I had my last daughter at 40. Just follow what the dr says, probably send you to a nutritionist.
