my sugar came slightly high in the recent test and doc said control it through diet first. honestly thoda tension hai. what changes did u all make to bring it down naturally?
Managing sugar when you already feel sick and nauseous is so incredibly hard, I feel your pain. Try eating small, frequent meals with complex carbs instead of simple sugars. Definitely keep your doctor in the loop about your levels.
I used a pregnancy app to track my daily food intake and blood sugar logs, which was super helpful. Focus on high fiber foods, cut down white rice/maida, and do a 15-minute post-meal walk. Share your weekly logs with your doctor to see if you need medication.
High blood sugar is a serious symptom that can cause complications for the baby if left uncontrolled. I had a difficult pregnancy, so I highly advise against trying to manage this purely on your own. Please work closely with your diabetologist or gynac.
Managing sugar means frequent blood tests and doctor visits, which can get quite expensive. To save on costs, buy a good glucometer to test at home and plan your meals practically using cheap, healthy options like oats and sprouts. Keep your gynac informed.
Beta, control your diet and avoid sweets, white rice, and potatoes completely. You can eat a handful of soaked almonds and have simple home-cooked meals. But remember, gestational diabetes needs proper medical care, so listen to your doctor first.
Please don't worry, with proper food control and walking, your sugar will come down. Just follow whatever diet your gynac suggested. Sending you positive thoughts.
I completely understand how terrifying it is to see high blood sugar numbers, I used to cry over my test reports. Please take a deep breath, it is highly manageable. You just need to strictly follow the diet chart given by your doctor or dietitian.
