Did you take insulin. If your doctor gave you insulin you could be able to eat more. And carbs are important for growing baby so if you were on a plan that didn’t allow you to eat carbs you needed insulin most likely. Also I’ve found bread that only has 6 grams carbs in each slice and made lower carb alternatives to regular food I would be craving.
I'm 7 weeks pregnant as well and very nauseous They say it is a myth that this nausea means a girl but based on my observations, boy mamas do not suffer from nausea as much
I feel so validated….this is my second pregnancy too and every single thing you’re saying is exactly what I’m feeling & what I’ve been saying to my husband. I feel so not crazy anymore.
Just hitting the 7th week mark and im just so freaking exhausted and nauseous it’s hard to function throughout the day! Yes, the hunger is insane. I feel like I’m the sleepiest and hungriest I’ve ever been like every hour and a half 😅
So glad I watched this! I’m also 5 weeks and was feeling the sharp pain and was freaking out. This is my first pregnancy! Thanks. You calmed me down lol
5 weeks and 1 day today. I am very irritable and easily annoyed with my 5 year old daughter. I am 37 and crying because I did not prepare my body with the vitamins like folate before getting pregnant. I just started taking prenatal vitamins when we found out at week 3. I also took ibuprofen and colds medicine at week 2 so I am a little paranoid. Got insomnia too and feels hot and tired all the time.
When you spoke about the mom guilt I wanted to cry. I'm 7 weeks and I've been so sick for the last two weeks that I've just been laying around and I feel like a POS because my 3 year old has to deal with it too.
I can definitely relate to being emotional. I'm in week 5 and I cried yesterday for only God knows why maybe I felt overwhelmed but I'm not sure what I was overwhelmed by lol its a very interesting time.
Times used to be very Challenging, I had the worst days of my life living with Type 2 diabetes, I appreciate you so much Dr Igudia, You have restored me my life that was lost already . Thank you so much for curing me of my diabetes with your natural Herbs.
I had GD with my first some 4 years ago it was stressful and overwhelming. I was able to control it with diet only and now I’m on my second baby I’m older now I’m 36 and I feel that I might have it again based on how I’m feeling I’m trying to stay positive about it.
I tested after 4.5 weeks (today) it is negative but i have symptoms of pregnancy... But what I did is I disturbed the kit while it is kept flat for reading result 3min...i removed at 1min and kept it in other side so i got negative result or what???
This is my third pregnancy, but I am currently 4w4d with our 3rd baby and I am very sensitive to smells, little quesy here and there but not moody at all, feeling quite happy and content. And some mild acne on my face ( fun!,😂)
I’m 5 weeks this week and today I cried while making coffee because I started to feel sick and thought i had gone off coffee. I’ve done soo much rechearch and I’ve cut down to one cup a day because I love coffee. Why am I crying about it though 😅
I hope you i don't use chicken chicken pot recipe with anything else?? Like I don't use the crockpot unless its this soo....yea don't take it personal haha, but yea I love you for the recipe
I’m 5 weeks exactly today and I’ve had 2 miscarriages and 2 chemical pregnancies and the anxiety is through the roof haven’t had any bleeding but that nagging feeling in the back keeps telling me that I’m undeserving the happiness of my rainbow baby and hubby is wonderful and trying but still feels like he won’t fully understand how I’m feeling 🌈✨💜
Thank you so much for telling your story. I've just been told I have GD and I feel like a failure. Hearing your story is comforting, especially since it's hard to find any videos of moms talking about their experience. Sometimes it's nice to know you're not alone.
I was diagnosed at around 17 weeks and in the beginning it was fairly easy. I hated the lifestyle change because I felt I wasn’t eating what made me happy and it was fine because I want my baby to be healthy but I also felt I was sacrificing my mental health doing so. I’m now 34 weeks and I’m taking 2 different kinds of insulin 3-4 times a day on top of pricking myself 4 times a day and STILL spiking. The amount of insulin I take is ridiculous as well so you can say I’m pretty defeated. Baby is healthy tho just at the cost of my mental state. Gestational diabetes is definitely a struggle. It sucks as well because most people don’t really understand it and wonder why I cry when I see someone eating a pizza after I ate the most bland meal ever but am still hungry waiting to take my blood sugar to see if I can eat a little bit more. And if it’s not low enough just having to tough it out.
Ok, I can't EXPLAIN how relieved I am to hear about your uterus pain. I've been getting the same thing, almost like very very very light menstrual cramping and pain in the uterus and while I read it was normal, nobody every TALKED about it in a video and pheeewww
I found this video after watching your gestational diabetes video, this video is also quite old lol. Did you have gestational diabetes with this pregnancy?
