#thirdtrimestercountdown 🤰🏽| Come with me to take a routine test for gestational diabetes. These tips were def worth trying out 🤷🏽‍♀️ #gestationaldiabetes Definition: Gestational diabetes is a diabetes diagnosed during pregnancy (gestation). Like other types of diabetes, gestational diabetes affects how your cells use sugar (glucose) and can affect pregnancy and baby’s health — but can resolve after giving birth. I think my biggest aversion to failing this test was having to go back for the 3 hour test that included blood draws every hour #ihateneedles 😅 With the struggle to get pregnant, I really also didn’t want any other hurdles — this pregnancy has been so smooth. 😭 Thank God 🙌🏽 I am not too familiar with the science behind the tips I used from whattoexpect , but heyy, I passed and it didn’t hurt to try them out.🤸🏾‍♀️ Lemme know if you would try this.
