Haan na, managing sugar during pregnancy is really stressful. Try to avoid white rice, maida, and sweets, and do simple walking. But please talk to your gynac, self-managing can be tricky for the baby.
I used to track my blood sugar levels on my app daily. Fasting and post-meal walks are great, and eating complex carbs helps. However, if your levels are consistently high, please consult your doctor immediately to avoid any complications.
