This video is very informative. It explains how gestational diabetes develops in a very simple way, and it give one key way to prevent it (maintain a healthy diet). As a future midwife, this video is a good reference for me to use when it comes to teaching my future patients.
Warning: Don't take Glyburide for gestational diabetes. Glyburide is counter-indicated (not recommended) by the FDA for pregnancy unless absolutely necessary, due to some adverse effects in rats, plus the possible side-effect of neonatal hypoglycemia. Insulin is 100% safe for pregnancy, however, so it's a much better option. Please do your own research.
I failed the 1 hour glucose tolerance test, and they did not even bother to do another test, I was sent to a diabetic clinic and monitor my blood sugar level each day. So far I am able to control my blood sugar level with diet. good luck hope everything is ok with u.
