What DO I eat WITH GESTATIONAL DIABETES?

WHAT DO I EAT, HOW MUCH SHOULD I EAT,  AND WHEN SHOULD I EAT?

Gestational Diabetes is high blood glucose levels occurring in pregnancy.

It is important to maintain adequate nutrition for your developing baby, control your appetite, have the appropriate weight gain, as well as helping to mange your glucose levels.

With the right knowledge you’ll learn that you don’t need to go hungry, or have to eat dramatically different to the rest of the family.

Pregnancy is not a time to over-restrict foods, food groups or carbohydrates. As well as looking at blood glucose levels, it is important to provide adequate nutritional intake for growth and development.

These questions can be answered by a specialist diabetes dietitian.
