Our second GDM personal journey shared. Hayley shares her experience with a diagnosis of gestational diabetes given at around 33 weeks when bloods were taken for other reasons. Little education & even less information around why her baby had low glucose levels at delivery leaves Hayley feeling confused. Diabetes took a back seat as other health complications took priority during pregnancy. Hayley shares this as she looks back & wonders if things could have been different if she was given more information & education. Would her baby of needed supplementary formula & multiple heal pricks? She kindly shares how she didn't truly understand the importance of diabetes management in pregnancy at the time.
Diabetes in pregnancy is an area we are very passionate about in the hope of helping women to feel more empowered, less guilty, & with the opportunity to make informed decisions.
