I had diabetes with my second child. I controlled it with diet, I did not have to go on insulin. You have to be very careful and very diligent or your Internist will put you on insulin. My son weiged on 6 pounds at birth, usually diabetes babies are big. I only gained 15 pounds with him, so if you're careful you'll be ok. Diabetes usually disappears after the birth, but my doctor told me that I should watch myself because my chances of getting it increases within a 10 year period. Don't be scared, just eat healthy and do everything your nutritionist tells you. Excercise is good too. You will also have to measure your blood sugar 4 times a day and the ketonesin your morning pee. They'll explain everything. It seems overwhelming, but you get used to it. Good Luck!!!

gestational diabetes come from your body being unable to produce enough insulin for you and the baby once birth of the baby 99% of the time the diabetes goes away
