Anyone had this?

Going to docs in the morning, my recent hozzie stay they said I have a fungal infection called Candida which can be the first sign of gestational diabetes...I have a family history of diabetes-my mum is insulin dependant, so was my gran and so is OH dad.

I am not worried too much, just intrested to know how it could affect the reminder of my pregnancy, and I believe babies born to mums with GD have BIG babies, so might get induced early??

I need to see what the next step is, glucose tolarance test I belive, anyone had one, whats it like??

Sorry for so many questons...Want to be prepared when I see doc
tomorrow as had lots of problems with my midwife since 28 week bloods so I am hoping for answers from my GP tomorrow :pray:

Will post in 3rd tri section too...
