Had gd in last pregnancy, diet controlled.does every subsequent pregnancy put me at a higher risk of developing established type 2 diabetes?

Not exactly: Having gestational diabetes means that you are at a higher risk of having GDM again in future pregnancies. It also means you have a higher lifetime risk of type 2 diabetes. The number of total pregnancies does not directly correlate with the lifetime risk of type 2 diabetes.

GD: Most likely but discuss wth your team who know you best. Check with relatives experience as well.
