4.0 out of 5 stars Best book out of 3 that I bought, April 4, 2004
By A Customer
This review is from: Managing Your Gestational Diabetes: A Guide for You and Your Baby's Good Health (Paperback)
I bought 3 books when I was diagnosed with Gestational diabetes: 101 tips for Healthy Pregnancy w/ Gestational diabetes, Gestational Diabetes: what to Expect & this one. This one was the best I thought. It had a real food guide (my main questions were how do I control my diabetes with diet), the others just wouldn't come out & say "eat this" "don't eat that". Plus the author writes to the women with the diabetes, very direct & personable. I am giving this book to my midwife so she can share it with her patients instead of just Gestational Diabetes: What to Expect.

2.0 out of 5 stars Good food guide, December 3, 2000
By A Customer
This review is from: Managing Your Gestational Diabetes: A Guide for You and Your Baby's Good Health (Paperback)
When you have Gestational Diabetes, you are basically going to find all your information from your Doctor and Diabetic Counseling, there really isn't any one book that tells you anything more than you already know. I thought this books Chapter 5 on Food, Food, Food was helpful. It allowed me to make up my own menus following their guidelines on what to eat. It was pretty much the same guidelines I got from my nutritionist but my nutrionist never gave me as many choices. I would recommend this book to someone with Gestational Diabetes, because of that chapter, and it does give the same information as your Doctor.

5.0 out of 5 stars Excellent Summary !, July 21, 1999
By A Customer
This review is from: Managing Your Gestational Diabetes: A Guide for You and Your Baby's Good Health (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.
