My doctor told me my HbA1c levels are a bit high, and I'm pregnant right now. I want to make sure I do everything right for my baby. What dietary changes or lifestyle tips have helped you all keep your blood sugar in check during pregnancy?
With my PCOS, keeping my sugar in check was a constant struggle. I found that cutting down on white rice and maida helped, but honestly, you must follow whatever diet your gynac or diabetologist plans for you.
Say goodbye to your sweet cravings for a bit, haha! Eating lots of green veggies and skipping the extra roti helped me. But seriously, let your doctor do the math and guide your insulin or diet plan.
Focus on high fiber foods like oats and ragi, it worked wonders for me! 🌾 Also, drink lots of water and stay active. Definitely get a proper diet chart from your doctor though!
I am planning to conceive soon and my HbA1c is a bit high too, so I'm also looking for tips. Are you doing any specific exercises or is it mostly diet control that doctors suggest?
Don't worry, dear. Just try to walk a little after meals and eat small, frequent portions. Keep in touch with your doctor regularly and they will guide you safely.
My doctor just told me my HbA1c is slightly on the higher side and I'm so anxious about it. Did anyone else have to manage this? I'm trying to cut sweets but would love to know what your doctors recommended.
