My sugar came slightly high in the last test and gynac has told me to watch my diet. Im a bit worried na, what all did you ladies do to keep it in control? mostly looking for what food habits helped.
I had gestational diabetes so I really had to manage this. Small frequent meals, cut sugar and refined carbs, more protein and fibre, and a short walk after meals helped my numbers. But please follow your dietician and gynac plan, mine monitored me closely.
My doctor said diet, portion control and regular monitoring are key. She told me to avoid sugary drinks and white rice in big amounts, and pair carbs with protein. If diet isnt enough they add medicine, so stick to your checkups.
I packed protein snacks for work so I didnt grab sugary stuff. Walking after lunch even ten minutes made a difference for me. Keep your glucose monitoring routine simple so you actually stick to it na.
Diet and walking help, but high sugar in pregnancy really needs proper monitoring with your doctor. Please dont try to manage it alone. Regular tests keep both you and baby safe.
