For those who have/had GD . . .

[Anonymous]

How often did your doctor recommend checking your blood sugar, at what times of day (1 hour or 2 hours after meals, for example), and what were your target numbers? What kind of monitoring did your doctor require/ask of you? (I.e., written log of blood sugar readings, more frequent visits, how many additional ultrasounds, etc.). And, most importantly, did your doctor suggest inducing at or before your due date because of GD?

I have a feeling I'm going to be diagnosed with GD in the near future, so I wanted to see the range of experiences in this area in terms of treatment and monitoring. TIA!
