[quote=Anonymous]9:59 again.

I also meant to say re: "GD being the mom's fault", I have a hard time believing that Whitney, who has been a midwife for a long time for a lot of women, would actually believe that. I know she thinks that their dietary guidelines will result in the healthiest pregnancy possible, but I also doubt that she believes any deviation from this diet will result in GD.

I do think it's possible that in individual cases, it is possible that a particular woman is not managing her diet the way Whitney would like. When I was pregnant with my first, I ate a lot of gelato. I also ate a lot of shitty carbs. I slacked big time on green leafy vegetables. My sugars were pretty high as a result, though not so high that I needed to get the 3 hour test. Some women eat better than others. Some things you eat can have adverse effects on your health and one of those things is GD. So while I don't think that it's "the woman's fault" that she had GD, I think there are also times when better attention to diet could have prevented it. [/quote]
