It is: still possible, and if you're overweight you should be rechecked lated during the pregnancy. Women w/PCOS have a much higher incidence of gestation diabetes during pregnancy and true diabetes later in life. Work w/a good dietitian now to improve your diet during pregnancy. Work on diet, exercise and weight loss after delivery.
