A "bad" few days (cause COVID killed your processing speed and emotional tolerance) doesn't discount all the work/effort that came before - and is yet to come!

No significant difference in physical outcomes but potentially a LOT of adverse mental health outcomes by having a GDM diagnosis. What if it wasn’t necessary? This is what informed women wanted when asked about consequences of GDM. onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/…
