    @firesofmylife I do recommend the powder inositol over the pills! It seems to be more effective. Best of luck!

    GD Diagnosis

    @firesofmylife Absolutely not! My husband and I have been together for 15 years and never once even had a pregnancy scare. We tried for a baby for 6 years before ever getting pregnant. My doctors had recommended we try IVF, but it didn't feel right for me. I also have hypothyroidism, so that was...

    Ultrasound clarity?

    @allieso Hi! 5'3", 260 lb at the beginning of my pregnancy. Ultrasounds definitely weren't super clear, but we could define everything. Once she got bigger, it became clearer.

    GD Diagnosis

    @silvershadow Hi! I was diagnosed at 10 weeks. I'm 5'3", 240 lbs, and also have PCOS. Only my fasting numbers were an issue (they ranged from 95-105 before being medicated) until I reached 34 weeks when I had some after dinner highs, on and off now, but nothing serious. I did read that weeks...

    A mess of a venting session

    @kmsga I was taking it for PCOS, which they told me was dormant during my pregnancy and I didn't need to medicate for it. They also took me off of Metformin, which crosses the placenta.

As for the baby asprin, if you don't have protein in your urine, a few elevated readings aren't enough to diagnose you with pre-eclampsia. Also, FYI...

    Was everyone referred to an MFM just because their BMI says they’re “obese”?

    @danielf Things can change rather quickly, but regardless of why you were referred, it's never a bad thing to have extra eyes on the baby. For me, it was a relief to be able to see her more often than regular moms.

    Needed opinions!

    @willy17 Hi! I have PCOS, struggled with infertility, and was on metformin for years, but I didn't lose a pound. However, when I did add ovasitol to my regime, I got pregnant naturally pretty quickly. While pregnant, I've been on insulin for GD, which was diagnosed at 10 weeks and have actually...
