    Gestational Diabetes with my BOY - am I destined for only boys?

    I wasn't sure how to phrase my title sorry.

    I was a healthy bmi when I fell pregnant with my boy and had quite severe GD that I controlled with diet throughout pregnancy. I had no other risk factors for GD so obviously it's just some weird thing my body did...

    I am now heavier than I was when I fell pregnant with my boy (just good old fashioned over eating there, must do better...) but am I just predisposed to having boys if I had gestational diabetes before? Has anyone had GD with a GIRL? I've never met anyone with GD who was pregnant with a girl...

    Will the standard pink sway plan I purchased still work as nudging the scales pink?

    We have a special diet for people who have issues with insulin resistance and gestational diabetes. And the good news is that it is actually MORE effective than the standard. You absolutely MUST switch diets and not follow the standard LE Diet. I read in your other thread you bought a generic plan, I'd love to personalize that for you (free of charge). Message me by clicking my username and we can talk about that.

    Yes, we do have some women with GD who have girls. They are often very very controlled eaters and are sometimes on medication that makes them have daughters. But we can do that for you, too, and we have, if anything, BETTER success rates with people who have blood sugar issues since we know what exactly we need to change.

    Ah that's actually amazing to hear. I controlled my crazy GD with diet alone as I was determined not to need the medication (no thank you needles haha!) so I can handle the controlled eating with purpose. I'll PM you right away - thank you! x

    Hi Mochi,

    Just to reassure you a bit, I had GD with my girl but didn’t have it with my two boys.
