Did you know that having high blood sugar during pregnancy has an effect on your baby, not just now, but sometimes all through childhood and even lifelong?

When you have diabetes during pregnancy, it’s so important for you to follow your diet, have regular check-ins with your provider, and keep your glucose under the best control possible.

You might be feeling shocked, ashamed, or scared that you won’t be able to change your diet enough to make a difference for yourself and your baby. But the truth is you are not alone.

There's no need to go it alone or feel ashamed or scared.​

Have a great week,
Tracy
