I’ve had 2 GDM pregnancies and my favorite late night treat was Fairlife milk + the Catalina crunch cereal (at Costco) with protein like a cheese stick. Lots of carrots with hummus/ranch, would make a bunch of chicken tenders in the oven at the beginning of the week to eat with stuff to balance protein/carb ratios

I’m curious do you know so early bc you have a history with it? My glucose test isn’t until 28 weeks so I wouldn’t even know until then

I’ve had GD with both of my pregnancies. You need to try Yasso Bars for your night time snack! They’re frozen Greek yogurt bars but taste so much like ice cream and really helped my morning numbers. ❤️

Fellow Gestational Diabetic here 🙋🏻♀️Yasso bars were a life-saver for me, along with halo top ice cream when it came to treats. Also, incorporating things like sweet potatoes, blueberries, cranberries, etc. into everyday meals. Also, protein pancakes for the win 🙌🏻

Plain Yogurt parfaits with low carb granola and berries was a nice snack or breakfast. I also ate deli meat but I would get it fresh

Do the continuous glucose monitor! It was a life saver in my second pregnancy. I was insulin dependent both times. You've got this!!

Ugh the mental energy of GD is so annoying. Like I’ve never struggled with disordered eating and it is so surreal to be like mapping carbs and thinking so much about every single thing I eat and walking and timing and 😭😭. I understand the struggle ❤

Idn if you have an Oura ring but you can sync it up to a continuous glucose monitor. You can take a pic of your food and it will calculate your macros for the meal based off the photo which is wild. Makes it super easy to log food. And then you can track any blood sugar spikes. I had GD with my first and it wasn’t around def going to be using it now pregnant with my second. Haven’t found out if i have GD again yet! Good luck mama, remeber it’s only temporary and learning about blood sugar and what spikes it is sooo important

Personally I think if you has diabetes you should be able to have deli meat, I’d how that logic works out but that’s low carb protein and it’s so unfair it’s off limits!

Sugar free pudding! It’s actually so good. Fellow GD mama, mourning a normal pregnancy is SO real.

I know it’s hard! I had gd with both my pregnancies too. I’m thinking I will have it with my third too. But you will be feeding your baby the best whole foods which isn’t a bad thing!

I had an ice cream snickers bar every night at 7:30 for my night time snack. It was the one thing I looked forward to and it helped with my morning numbers.
