10 Gestational Diabetes Symptoms
3. Thirst
Depending on their size and lifestyle, most people will need from between around 2.5 liters to 4 liters of fluids a day. Water is simply essential to us and we would only live for a few days without it. To help ensure we do get the water we need, we have developed a sensation that we know as thirst.
Gestational diabetes can make people thirstier than they otherwise would be, and they can find that their thirst is not satiated even after they are drinking. This happens because your body wants you to take on more fluids to help flush out the excess glucose in your blood stream.
