Gestational Diabetes???

In case its planned to have you subjected to a glucose tolerance test for gestational diabetes I urge you to read the below link, with article by Michel Odent in it first. This is very important information, as it seems that most midwives and doctors are very much mis informed on the topic.
It may make you wonder whether the medication will do more harm then good. I believe so.

I love Rixa's blog, as it is full of very good information about birth. Its, together with Laura Shanley's one of my favorites.

Have a good read and get informed before you get medicated.
