my doctor told me that most women who are gestational diabetic end up being pre-diabetic or type 2 within 15 years or less. weather true or not i dont know. maybe he was just trying to make me feel better he is very kind..lol

You was given Metformin whilst pregnant?

I was on Metformin for a couple of months at the beginning of the year and I've recently been taken off of it and put on insulin only, but when I first went onto Metformin I was told that I must inform them as soon as I thought I was pregnant or wanted to get pregnent as Metformin is very harmful to the baby
