The bad news is I have Gestational Diabetes. The good news is, we purposely tested early becuase we thought this might be the case, and I met with a Diabetic Counselor today and right now it's controllable with diet and exercise.
I have to eat specific foods (or rather, stay away from high-carbed foods... no more pasta for me!) I test 4 times per day. I was pretty nervous about what this would all mean, but after meeting with the counselor, I feel confident this will be a healthy lifestyle change and I know it is the best thing for the babies. Ok, I'm off to make a shopping list of all the foods we can stock up on.
