My morning fasting sugar is coming a bit high in this pregnancy, im 28 weeks. The day readings are fine but fasting wala bugs me. Gynac is monitoring it. Any of you faced this, what helped you naturally?
Fasting sugar is so tricky, yaar! Actually, having a light protein snack like almonds or boiled egg right before bed helped me. But definitely discuss the readings with your gynac, don't ignore it.
I know how stressful it is to see high fasting sugar numbers. Try eating a high-protein, low-carb snack before sleeping to prevent the liver from releasing extra glucose. Please share your log with your doctor regularly to keep your mind at peace.
Don't stress, dear. Try walking for 15-20 minutes after dinner and avoid heavy carbs at night. If the fasting levels are still high, please check with your doctor so they can help you safely.
Fasting sugar is hard to control with just diet, so regular follow-ups with your doctor are very important. They might suggest safe insulin or medication if needed. Keep monitoring it daily.
I felt so guilty when my fasting sugar was high, thinking I was hurting my baby. But I felt much better after my doctor explained it's just placenta hormones. Walking after dinner and eating a small piece of paneer at night really helped me.
