[quote=Anonymous]I am pregnant with #2 and both pregnancies had GD. Really good tips in here! A few other things that have been helpful for me: The finger prick thing was haaaard for me, and test strips are expensive/PITA to get a refill for if you run out ahead of time. I find it easy to wrap a hair elastic around my finger a few times to create a tourniquet and can always get enough blood out the first time for a reading. It stinks, it's annoying, and it's not your fault. As soon as I leaned into, "well, this makes meal prep a LOT easier", then it shifted my mindset. I have to eat lower carb then recommended (darn it) but stick to the same things over and over. [/quote]
