Nina asked:
I just wanted to know what the odds are for me to have gestational diabetes if my mom had it with a few of her pregnancies. Thanks!

I am barely 6 weeks pregnant and had a blood glucose test done last week, the results came back high at 220.
Does anyone know if that is too early for gestational diabetes, or do you think I had diabetes before the pregnancy and just didn't know about it?
The reason they tested so early is because my younger sister has diabetes; however, it's juvenile diabetes (Type 1). This is my first pregnancy, so I've never had the problem before.
Martini asked:
I am 33 weeks along with gestational diabetes. I have been doing very well with my blood sugar levels and my diabetes is controlled by diet.
Is it likely that my doctor will let me carry to 40 weeks?
