ok.co.uk:

Former X Factor contestant Cher Lloyd has revealed to her thousands of fans that she's been diagnosed with gestational diabetes.Taking to Instagram to share the concerning news, the 30 year old singer - who first shot to fame on the ITV talent series in 2010 - admitted the diagnosis left her in floods of tears, terrifying her about the future. "I got the call last week to tell me I had gestational diabetes," she wrote on an Instagram picture of a device used to assess the risk of diabetes. "I burst into tears.

I felt scared, confused and instantly blamed myself. "I’ve spent most of my time researching gestational diabetes and trying to find recipes and ways to control it.

I’m still getting used to the changes and how this might affect the rest of my pregnancy." The Want U Back vocallist - who is currently expecting her second child with husband Craig Monk - added: "I just wanted to reach out to any fellow gestational diabetes mamas out there sharing advise, stories and suggestions.

Sending love." The form of diabetes that the mother-of-one - who is already parent to five year old daughter - Delilah-Rae - has been diagnosed with develops during pregnancy.Though the NHS explains that the condition can activate during any stage of the pregnancy, it usually happens in the second or third trimester, and commonly goes away once the mum-to-be gives birth to their bundle of joy.
