Keep the faith!: Hi, Gestational diabetes is not uncommon, and that is why we test every woman during every pregnancy. The quoted risk for developing diabetes later in the next 10-20 years of your life is anywhere between 35-60%. The good news is, is that you can lower this future risk by living a healthy lifestyle, exercise regularly and keeping a normal body weight after this pregnancy.Good luck! You'll be fine
