Got my sugar test done but the numbers dont make sense to me at all. What is the normal range one should have during pregnancy, fasting and after food? trying to understand my own report.
When I had GD they checked fasting and after meal sugar, and there are specific target ranges they want you to stay in. The exact numbers your doctor will tell you based on your test. Dont go by general numbers online, follow what your gynac sets for you.
Basically they monitor fasting and post meal blood sugar during pregnancy, usually with a glucose tolerance test. The acceptable levels are a bit stricter than normal. Your gynac is the right person to tell your target numbers.
My doctor did the GTT test where you drink that sweet glucose drink and they check sugar at intervals. There are normal ranges for fasting and post meal, and she compared mine to those. Best to get the GTT done and let her interpret it.
I just did my sugar test last week and was nervous about the numbers too. The doctor said mine were in range, phew. Did anyone else feel anxious before the GTT? That sweet drink was yuck honestly.
