Hi Sweet Potato!
I had GD for my pregnancy too. It is SUCH a pain in the arse and I completely understand how you feel. Having to prick your finger 3 times a day was not fun, and very inconvenient.
However, I tried not to worry too much (easier said than done I know).
I did still eat cake..and biscuits.. I just didn’t go mad with them of course. I tried to have sensible meals that wouldn’t spike me. But will regularly ate my favourites such as sausage and mash with gravy (vegan..but still heafty lol).
My readings were usually okay.
Of course, this was my experience and I’m not saying that just because I was okay that you will be too. DO be mindful, listen to your body. But don’t panic. have a little sensible little sweet treat if you’re really craving it.
Me and my baby turned out fine. My diabetes went (though I actually never got around to checking after the birth..I only checked recently about a year and a half later..).
Good luck!
