My sugar came slightly high in the screening test and now im honestly bohot worried. Im 26 weeks. Doc has asked me to watch my diet but can it really be kept in control till delivery? Anyone who managed this, pls share how it went for u.
Yes, you can manage it easily even with a busy schedule. I used to pack healthy snacks like roasted chana and almonds to office to avoid canteen food. Just buy a simple glucometer to test at home and share the log with your doctor during visits.
It is definitely controllable! If your doctor permits, a 15-minute brisk walk after every meal and light prenatal yoga can work wonders for your blood sugar levels. Just make sure to get the go-ahead from your gynac first.
I have a family history of diabetes and I am planning to conceive soon, so I read about this a lot. Apparently, gestational diabetes is very common and completely manageable with proper monitoring. Do we need to do the sugar test in every trimester?
Of course it can be controlled, it's all about discipline. Get a good endocrinologist, track your carbs, and don't skip your monitoring. Millions of women manage it successfully and deliver perfectly healthy babies.
Yes, absolutely, I managed my gestational diabetes completely through diet and light walks. Cut down on white rice, maida, and sweets, and add more fiber and protein to your meals. But please follow the exact diet plan your doctor or hospital nutritionist gives you.
Haan, bilkul control ho jata hai. When I had high sugar, my mother made special low-carb rotis for me and kept track of my walk times. Having family support to eat healthy ghar ka khana makes managing it so much easier.
Ammadi, don't worry, it is very common. My mother-in-law suggested eating ragi instead of white rice, which helped a lot, but I strictly followed my doctor's medicine and diet plan too. Regular checkups are the key.
