What are the warning signs of gestational diabetes?

Thursday, January 15th, 2009

I am 27 weeks pregnant, I go in for my glucose test in 3 weeks. I was just wondering if there are any warning signs that I may have gestational diabetes. This is my second pregnancy, I didn’t have any problems with my first pregnancy nor do I have a history of diabetes or high blood pressure or anything like that. I have just been feeling really sick the past few days. Every time I eat I feel very nauseous and sometimes even have stomach pain. Does anyone know if this is normal? Thanks.

increased thirst and urination
swelling of hand and feet
nausia and dizzyness
feeling shaky before meals
same as if you had high blood sugar.
also the baby may show to be large in size on an ultrasound. as far as your symptomes thats just pregnancy in general.
