I was also diagnosed with GD at 26weeks. I was able to control it with just diet, I did not take the insulin medication. If managed properly it goes away after birth. Mine went away immediately I put to bed, my baby was tested immediately after birth and she didn’t contact it. Please make sure you get tested again at your 6weeks appointment. Love and hugs to you mama. The Lord is your strength.
Yeyy congratulations on your 8k subs🎊 10K here we come💃
Thank you lover ! Y’all made it possible
Congrats 👏🎉 on your 8k sub, just be thankful it's was detected on time. God bless good doctors, I also expirence that shot of breath thing OMG is not easy God bless the mother's.
The comment section is full of many knowledgeable pple.with good advice.
I was diagnosed with gestational diabetics too while pregnant and I checked youtube but I didnt see any nigerian or african meal ideas or any video like this. Thanks for sharing, it will definitely help people.
Awwn!
The best place to get professional advice on diet for disease conditions especially when it has to do with diabetes, a professional Registered Dietitian in your locality is your best bet, there are a variety of African meals one with diabetes can take,
Seeing a dietitian after being diagnosed with gestational diabetes should be a priority, trust me it will really help you plan your meals with what is available to you.
As real as it can get. You are doing great, mama 👍🏽
Thanks for sharing your reality. I hope it goes away after the birth of your baby girl 🙏🏽
❤️
Those needles though. In Nigeria they do this too depending on the hospital. And yes high sugar and high BP kills children in the womb. But after delivery follow up is important because it can linger on
Yeah
Thanks for sharing !! You done well dear to share this with us .. God bless you darling
❤️❤️
You’re doing great sweet mama!! I experienced GD with my 2nd and 3rd(last) baby. For the 2nd it was detected at 33 weeks and for the 3rd at 24 weeks. I believe I had GD with my first pregnancy but was never detected. Because I had to deliver him via cs urgently because it was detected he was dying , thanks be to God! Because I would have lost him if they had not taken him out before his due date. It was after my 2nd baby that I realised that I might have had GD in my 1st pregnancy but it was never detected. I’m in Ghana. I managed my pregnancies with metformin ,insulin and healthy eating . It wasn’t easy at all but knowing that I was keeping my baby healthy and safe was all that I needed to keep me going. God will see you through as he saw me through in Jesus name!!
Awwn! Bless, amen
I Love the way you are being consist, the Lord is your strength it will soon be over.
Amen
I wish you a safe delivery Sis, gestational diabetes is real, thank God you're under control now. A new friend
❤️
Thanks for sharing , this practice should be done in Nigeria asides the normal urinalysis test that’s been conducted during antenatal
They checked for it during my pregnancy, I know some women in my ANC that theirs was detected cos the hospital ensured we carried out certain test if they notice any red flag after vitals signs were checked. It was expensive though cos sometimes I spent between 3k-7k to run test minus routine drugs. It is well, thank God the doctors detected it on time. I pray for a smooth and safe delivery for you and our beautiful angel.
God will continue to strengthen you. You will deliver safely Amen🥰🥰
❤️
Well done sis 🤗😘
I did had GD when I was pregnant with my second child but I didn’t need medication, I was able to control it with diet but my baby was very big, she was weighing 4.5kg, she was not able to wear 0-3 months clothes that’s how big she was😊, wishing you all the best, you’re doing great managing it 👍 ❤️
Kai!!! Diet is key
Thank youuuuu
I love you prudence❤️ God bless you and your beautiful baby and family
❤️❤️❤️❤️
My love to you and the family ❤️❤️❤️
I was also diagnosed with gestational with my last baby. I am glad you got to know about it and you are taking the right step to control it.. it is something that can be managed, If detected early and I agree with you because my sister in-law lost a baby while pregnant in Nigeria and in similar situations as yours. She had a baby here in the US the following year and was diagnosed with gestational diabetes and had a healthy full term baby. Also note that a great percentage of those who had gestational diabetes are likely to develop diabetes. So just manage weight and what you eat.
You’re so right !!!
Blessings blessings upon you and family
❤️❤️
Wooww,thanks for sharing babes
Just landed,let me sit down and watch
💃🏽
thank GOD it was diagnosed early!
God bless you and the baby ❤❤❤
Amen
May God bless and keep you and baby🙏🏼❤️
❤️
Thanks for sharing!❤
❤️❤️❤️
Hello mama, welldone you are doing a great job 💪🏽. Gestational diabetes can detected in many hospitals in Nigeria, especially teaching hospitals. I don't know where your previous hospital is but most teaching hospitals or women and children hospitals with Ob/Gynae specialist Doctors can easily detect. This time around will be different by His grace
Oh didn’t know this !!!!
Amen
@@PrudenceApinoko yes I know this which was why I decided to comment. I am a pharmacist and my husband a Gynaecologist in warri. These are the issues in Nigeria and many private or those not specialised don't tell people because they want to make money. One of the causes of infant and maternal mortalities.
Thanks for the response. Those private hospitals are only doing business. I can hardly use their facility no matter how good it is except some few good ones in Lagos which is not cheap. As a registered Nurse, despite the whole stress in teaching Hospital, I prefer teaching Hospital services. Gestational diabetes, Eclampsia etc are common cases in Nigeria not necessarily with women who are obese.
Thanks for sharing this with us dear. I had GD in my first and second pregnancy. It wasn't detected in the first though and we lost the baby. I'm currently pregnant and I'm already monitoring my sugar intake. Hopefully, I'll be able to scale through without medications and insulin. Kudos to all mothers!!!
Awwwn!
God will carry you & this baby amen
@@PrudenceApinokoAmen! Thank you so much.
I thank God for my OBGYN always cos at my first appointment she got to know I had diabetes in my fam. Has she monitored me closely. I was doing sugar test every now and then. I had to change my diet even cos she didn’t want me to cross the mark
Great! Thank God
God bless you sis ❤❤
❤️
If you go to pound shop you will find plastic cereal containers to store your cereals once you open the packet. It keeps the cereals crunchy.
Yea, I got them now o
Thanks for sharing
❤️
God is ur strength dear.You shall deliver like Hebrew women in JN💕💕
Amen
There is plastic container for spaghetti too. These plastic containers are specifically made for cereals and spaghettis
Thanks for sharing sis
❤️❤️
God will see you through and you will give birth safely 🙏
Amen
Thanks so much 🥰
❤️
I wish all the best, I have the same when was prenant last year! try and egg, blueberry, strawberry and blackberry.
❤️❤️
It will be well
Amen
Firstly, there is something called history taken in the hospital which gives your provider a clue of what you may experience or not.(some diseases runs in families e.g hypertension, diabetes)
Urinalysis is a routine check for all pregnant women.
Before we crucify our country😄some of us just go to any hospital we see not minding who the provider is.
Secondly some of you mothers when you are being told to do some test you complain of money and even dictate for the doctor on what to do. I trained in government hospital and worked in a strict gynecology clinic before I relocated hence my analysis 😅.
In all, being pregnant or not let's try to eat healthy!
Exactly
I do urinalysis any time I go for antenatal n I’m right here in Nigeria…
I had gestational diabetes with my daughter, throughout my pregnancy I saw a dietitian a nutritionist and an endocrinologist. They were very helpful in guiding me towards healthy weight control for myself and my baby, I don't know how the health care system is in the uk but you should as your doctor to recommend you to all three of the above mentioned. I saw someone commented that gestational diabetes go away after the baby is born, that's not always the case. Take care of yourself and your unborn and do your research diligently. Peace and blessings to you
Same here, they’ve really been helpful.
If well managed it really does go away.
I will.
Thank you so very much
@@PrudenceApinoko yes. Mine went away after giving birth .
It is not easy dear, especially the needles. I know it is difficult but you've got this sis. God will see you through it all. I will keep you in my prayers 🙏. 😘😘😘
It depends on the hospital you're using here in Nigeria. I was diagnosed on my 2nd baby, and had me lectured and managed till I put to bed. And to the glory of God I and my baby girl has been very fine. I wish you a safe delivery dear.
Another thing to do while managing GDM is to make sure you eat early. Latest for dinner, on or before 7.30 PM you can just have a healthy snack if you feel hungry later. Thanks for sharing dear
Everything will work fine.
PS must you emphasize on papa adriel burnt stew? Lolz
😂😂😂you know na😂😂
I must find trouble
I landed early
Oshee
Well done mama. I wish you and the baby good health and safe delivery. That your doctor in naija's comment hmm.
Well! I had two kids in Nigeria and for both pregnancies, I was monitored for GD and high blood pressure and with my second, the picked hypertension at 18weeks and was managed properly till I gave birth.
The hospital I used were particular about the results of the urine sample we take before our classes begin and as the pregnancy advanced, they did a particular glucose test( can't remember what it was called and the week). If that doctor is right, then I think it is either the policy of the hospital you used or the man was lying. Sincerely, some of them are careless I had one who gave me a med that causes miscarriage thankfully I did my research and didn't take it.
U see during research before taking drugs in pregnancy is very important
You are a strong lady, and I appreciate you encouraging women who are going through this, however I really hope you saw a registered dietitian not just a doctor, and also try adding vegetables to every meal, that's a secret with controlling sugar levels, taking vegetables with every meal...
Then also you can also switch to skimmed milk instead unless the one you used here is skimmed..
Then please, see a dietitian very important...
One with gestational diabetes can also run low sugar too, so it's quite a delicate situation and diet is very important so that after birth it goes away..
Well done ma.
God will grant you safe delivery and good health.
Amen
hello I am first to comment today, it's because of your pregnancy you will be fine 🙂!
Thank you
I remember when I was told not to eat salt when I was 6 months pregnant bcos of high blood pressure 😲 it wasn't easy at allll,I ate tasteless food for about 3 months o 😁 at the end of the day it was worth it,my baby is almost 5 months old and she gives me joy every second of the day, pregnancy is not easy at all,you are doing well mama,safe delivery to you.♥️♥️♥️♥️
❤️❤️
Thanks for sharing ma
But I have a question,were you having an sign that made you to test for d gestational diabetes,and at which months of ur pregnant was it detected, will be happy if you make a video about it.. thanks
If you are in the UK and you are African or Asian you always get tested for Gestational Diabetes when pregnant.
It was just at routine check up that the hospital does at 32 weeks !
It’s their standard practice here .
Wish you a safe delivery madam, but I guess your on medication that regulate your blood sugar, if not all this samolina, flasks, banana , n full cream milk will extremely spark ur blood if your not on medication,
I wasn’t really on serious medication o! The levels were okay so far I wasn’t taking so much . I did cut down on my portions and this day was just a day I indulged as I had been on oats , brown bread and all the boring stuff lol
Thank you
Don't worry after given birth it'll go.
Thank you, I was told so
Thanks for sharing. Pls I would love to ask if your health insurance covers all kinds of hospital visitation
It does
@@PrudenceApinoko please does the health insurance cover child's delivery too
Please reduce high carbs foods.... semo and cereals will spike your blood sugar.
Okay, will do
Very true. Semo eba is a no no
When I was pregnant with my first son some years ago , I was diagnosed with gestational diabetes. The told me not to eat sweet stuff. Diet change, a lot of vegetables and beans protein, less cabs , small portions, I use to check 4 times in a day .
You will be okay, 🥰❤️
Exactly what I was told too o
Kuul mama, you’re here, I hail ooo, Obodo Fam 👍🏿🥰💖💙💜💚
@uteuojo Hassan, I’m here oo,obodo fam🥰😍
The pin is called 'Lancet', in Nigeria we run glucose tolerance test for all pregnant women to rule out gestational diabetics
I have learnt o!
The glucose tolerance test don’t take it’s enough test to show it o! BecAuse I did it back then & it was done just once I think.
Here it was done 4 times daily for a week and then detected .
It is not a routine test for every pregnant woman in Nigeria. It is only run for women with high BMI. Ideally, it should be run for every single pregnant woman irrespective of your history. I pray we get it right in naija and save the lives of our babies🙏🏾
@@jenobodos8864 or well for some though, Urinalysis is a routine test for pregnant women it can be detected there cos glucose is one of the parameters
Urinalysis is very unreliable because the pregnant woman may come into antenatal clinic in the morning after fasting overnight and not having breakfast. In this case, her urinalysis may be clear. Now, if the same woman had a midnight meal/snack and even breakfast before coming to antenatal clinic, her urinalysis will most likely detect glucose. So you see why Glucose tolerance test should be mandatory for every pregnant woman? Thanks for opening up this conversation. It’ll definitely benefit someone
@@jenobodos8864 it is a routine test in the facility I have worked for each visit of antenatal care. It is just that most people prefer to visit private hospitals and I am sorry to say that most of these people only want your money. Teaching Hospital facilities is good especially in South West. Gestational diabetes is being detected early irrespective of your BMI.

MVP!!
Trust me bangs soup is not healthy cus if d much oil in it if u diabetic u should cut dwn a lot on oil been on dat road it helped me

@@oluwakemioluwafemi4957 if u like listen it is not healthy am not talking abt d quality of d oil bangs usually have a lot of oil d problem some Nigerians have wen something is healthy doesn’t mean it should be excessively eaten or wen something is good doesn’t mean u should eat as u want do u knw wat high cholesterol is when u r diabetic u a open to a high blood pressure and high cholesterol eat soo much oil and embrace cholesterol issues pls hv a nyc day
@@verahillary9580 Hmmm,I don't understand you. Explain it in scientific form, you are contradicting yourself.
Were the strips and glucometer given to you for free in the hospital?
This was so informative
Yes it was o!!
Good morning madam, God Almighty shall see you through in Jesus mighty name. The wheat bran you are eating may not allow your body to absorb nutrients, please Google side effect of eating wheat. Just advice
it's how you easily swallowed those pills for me. OG 😂😂
😂😂😂na jazz
Mk una shift for me o
Plz pass me d popcorn 😋
😂
Some women. Their baby wd weigh 5kg and they are happy. They dnt know its usually as a result of GD
Yes you love eating rice with plastic spoon 😍😍😅😅😄😄 😂
You know this 😂😂😂
E too sweet 😂
This your breakfast is a nah nah! Sorry madam but have you considered oat(porridge) breakfast?
Replace your normal rice with brown rice,
Peplace peak milk with semi skimmed milk. It might taste nice but you will quickly get used to taste. Its really annoying when you can't eat the food that you love. It wouldnt be for long. But good luck and all the best.
Lol! Everything was replaced, but the video was just me showing realistically some things I indulged 😂😂
With the peak I had fruit & fiber
With the pasta it was wheat pasta
And the Banga soup had it with very little semo o!
Didn’t want to come show I was eating just oats cause I will be lying.
@@PrudenceApinoko Fruit & Fibre is full of sugar. Always check the traffix light system on food packages.
Is it fine if I recommend something natural you can drink to help you? It will help with shortness of breath.
I don't take medication because it is made of chemicals made in labs
Yes please
@@PrudenceApinoko please just follow your OBGYNs/ dietician advice - don’t take concoctions suggested here on UA-cam
@@PrudenceApinoko Follow your Doctor's advice. Be wise and don't take medical advice for randoms on the internet.
@@DionneEguono yes sis , doing just that ☺️☺️
Pls when next try to clean up ur hands by using wool n spirit ..
