Very common, and in most cases it does go away after birth as it’s the placenta which causes it

So I've just been diagnosed with this very borderline, having to do my sugars 4 times a day, so far we seem to be okay with the testing, seeing the diabetes nurse this week and have a growth scan booked in. I'm hoping it disappears afterwards

I had this with my son but then not my daughter it's completely random and goes away after usually but not always x

I had it with my second child which I believe it’s because I am 17yrs older. It was awful and very hard to control, in the end i had to have insulin. I do not have it now only during pregnancy.
