High Blood Pressure
I had all the bad stuff when I was pregnant. Gestational diabetes and preeclampsia. My doctor told me to keep my feet up and lay on my left side as much as possible. Try these things..... If you are still concerned question your ob/gyn about it.

Good luck!

the 3 Hour Test
I have to take the 3 hour test, because my first 1 hour test came out with very high glucose levels. Does anyone know if this means i'm a good candidate for gestational diabetes Question it's kinda got me scared. I'm 34 weeks, and nothings gone wrong except for the results of the glucose screen test. This is my first baby, and was curious as to what anyone has to say about this or can help me prevent this...Maybe some good eating tips that have low sugar? Please help me!

it is all during pregnancy most of the time, and your pancreas may not be using the sugar the way it is suppose to. What do you eat/drink? Also they will give you a pill or insulin to help lower it
