Excellent Summary ! 21 July 1999
By A Customer
Format:Paperback
I was recently diagnosed with gestational diabetes at 29 weeks of pregnancy. My initial feelings included fear of the unknown. My doctor had sent me to see a nutritionist to discuss my diet. I found myself overwhelmed and afraid after my initial visit with the nutritionist. I found this book to be an informative guide to gestational diabetes and the risks associated with it. I feel more in control by further educating myself with the help of this wonderful book.

I was upset to learn I had gestational diabetes, but this book is very reassuring and informative. Dr.Peterson is complete in her explinations and guidelines. It followed very closely with my OBs recommendations. I have referred to for comfort several times since purchase. I would recommend this book, especially if it is the only one you buy.

I believe this book was published around 1994 and for an American market so not everything will be accurate - for example the glucose blood test ranges do not match up with what my hospital here in the UK uses. However - it is a very informative book and no doubt if you have been diagnosed with this it is important to know as much about it as possible.

If your blood glucose level one hour after eating is less than 120 mg/dl (6.7 inmol/L), you know your meal plan is working. If the level is higher than 120 mg/dl (6.7 mmol/L), adjustments need to be made in the meal plan, &quote;
