My obstetrician at the hospital gave me a chart showing fasting should be under 95 mg/dL and post-meal under 120 mg/dL. If your numbers are higher, please share them with your doctor immediately. They have great dieticians who can help.
Honestly, with my third-trimester cravings, looking at sugar numbers just makes me sad! But medically, fasting sugar should ideally be below 95 mg/dL. I'm just counting days until I can eat a giant gulab jamun without guilt!
I've heard fasting sugar needs to be strictly below 95 mg/dL. Is it true that pregnancy hormones make it rise suddenly even if we eat healthy? I'm trying to cut down on sweets beforehand just in case.
Fasting blood sugar should ideally be under 92 or 95 mg/dL during pregnancy. I had GD, so my doctor was very strict about this. Please monitor it regularly and don't change your diet without your gynac's advice.
My fasting sugar came out to be 98 last week and I am so stressed. My doctor said we will monitor it for another week. Did anyone else's levels go down just with a walk after dinner?
