[quote=Anonymous]I had postpartum preeclampsia with my first. Then got gestational diabetes with the second. I am thin and active so it was a surprise but diabetes runs in the family. You Monitor your blood sugar and do checks at wake up and after eating. You’ll count carbs and need to limit them. My doc had me keep a carb log and food journal. I had to always pair carbs with protein. I had to eat very low carb. Walk after each meal helps to control blood sugar. I exercised and walked a lot. No preeclampsia the second time around. [/quote]
