You cannot take Metformin while pnngeart!!! You can try to keep the glucose levels down with just food planning and exercise, but life is so much simpler with insulin to help.What the doctor is aiming at is a very healthy baby and mother when the pregnancy is over!!Ok, now change your whole lifestyle!! Because if you are GD you are at very much higher risk of developing full type 2 diabetes later in life.Think of me as your Nana telling you how to live your life!!Start with the low carb lifestyle, Atkins phase 2, South Beach phase 2, Zone Diet, all will assist you to become a very healthy good mother. These food plans are very good to instill in your daughters also. They will be at a much higher risk for diabetes as well.Come on!! Pricking your fingers every day sometimes hurts, but taking an injection doesn't hurt that much! You will be able to have more variety in food planning than if you flat out refuse to consider the insulin.Come through this pregnancy healthy and happy and have a healthy baby!! That is the name of the game! If it takes insulin, well it takes insulin.Good luck, little one!!!
