My fasting number came a bit high in the test and doc said keep an eye. Im 28 weeks and honestly thoda worried. What did u moms do for the morning reading specifically?
I am also struggling with my fasting sugar right now and it's so frustrating! My doctor told me to walk after dinner, but I find it so tiring. Are you guys also taking any special diet for this, or did your doctor suggest medicine?
I don't want to give any medical tips, but in my case, my gynac adjusted my dinner timings and that made a huge difference. I used to eat dinner early by 8 PM and then have a small cup of milk later. That's just what worked for me, so do discuss your routine with your doctor.
I just delivered last month and went through this exact same thing. My doctor advised me to strictly avoid carbs at night and focus on paneer or sprouts for dinner. Doing this and checking my levels regularly kept my fasting sugar perfectly in control.
Beta, for high sugar, eating a few soaked methi seeds in the morning is a very old and safe home remedy. But along with this, you must follow whatever diet and instructions your doctor has given you. Don't take any risks with sugar.
Haha, controlling sugar when all you want is ice cream is the ultimate pregnancy test! I used to do a gentle 15-minute walk inside my house after dinner, and it worked like magic for my fasting sugar. Try it out, your feet will thank you!
It's so hard to control cravings, but for fasting sugar, you have to be a bit strict with late-night carbs. I switched to eating a handful of walnuts or roasted chana if I felt hungry late at night. It satisfies the munchies without spiking the morning sugar!
Listen, don't stress too much about the fasting sugar numbers, stress makes it worse! Try having a light, high-protein snack like soaked almonds or a glass of unsweetened milk right before sleeping. It really helps keep the morning sugar stable.
