This topic brings back memories.
I had Gestational Diabetes with Courtney who is now 3. She was nearly 9lb when she was born and she was a week early too.
I have lots of advice for anyone who is suffering from this problem,and it is not as hard as it seems when you are diagnosed.Mine was diet controlled,so luckily I didnt need insulin.But I tell you when you are craving chocolate,it is such hard work.I tried the diet chocolate and it was ::ahh:: .
So if anyone want's advice,then I will try and help as much as I can
