My sugar levels came on the lower side and I keep feeling dizzy and weak by afternoon. Doc told me to manage it through food but I dont know what to eat exactly. Any safe things that helped u?
If your blood sugar is dropping and making you feel dizzy, please contact your doctor immediately. For a quick safe boost, my nurse suggested keeping a small piece of fruit or some dates nearby. Take care of yourself.
I remember having low sugar episodes in my second trimester. My doctor told me to eat small meals every 2-3 hours instead of big gaps. Keep some biscuits in your bag always, but check with your doctor too.
Do not try self-medicating or eating random sweets to raise sugar. If your lab reports are low, show them to your endocrinologist or gynac. They will give you a proper diet chart.
Why do you need to increase it? If it is medically low, you must consult your gynac right away. Don't start eating lots of sweets on your own, that's dangerous. Just have small, frequent meals with healthy carbs.
If you are just feeling a bit low on energy between meals, having a banana or some dry fruits really helps. But if your reports actually show low sugar, definitely ask your doctor what to do!
Please be very careful with sugar levels. If you are feeling weak or dizzy, please call your doctor first. I always preferred playing it completely safe and checking with my clinic for any fluctuations.
