I am also trying to cut down on carbs to manage my levels. Are you guys using normal whole wheat rotis, or did your doctor suggest multi-grain?

Controlling sweet cravings in the third trimester is pure torture, honestly! But my doctor has put me on a strict low-carb diet and daily walks to keep the sugar in check.

I was so worried when my sugar levels fluctuated slightly. I tracked every single meal, but honestly, working closely with a dietitian recommended by my gynac was the only thing that worked.
