Testing for diabetes Insipidus

None of these are tests for diabetes insipidus as that has nothing to do with the pancreas

I asked Google and it said the c peptide can help distinguish between type 1 and 2, and the antibody test can detect type 1.

It's the diabetes autoantibody test.

Diabetes insipidus is unrelated to type 1 and type 2 diabetes.

Neither of those are diabetes insipidous which has nothing to do with your pancreas

Of course, yet, but that question happens later, doesn't it? Isn't it "gestational diabetes" until after the pregnancy?

Well that’s the problem. If it’s labelled gestational diabetes and you’re told to go low carb thats not always helpful if it’s a different type of diabetes. If you take insulin through pregnancy and they label it t2 when the baby’s born and diabetes sticks around then that’s no good if you had t1 not gestational

Sorry I thought diabetes insididus was type 1.
The c-peptide is related to the pancreas though because when insulin rises so does c peptide
