I have my glucose test coming up and im a little nervous since diabetes is there in my family. Im 25 weeks now. Just wanted to understand what counts as a normal range so i know if my numbers are ok. anyone been through this?
Usually, fasting sugar should be below 95 mg/dL for a healthy pregnancy. Keeping these numbers in check really helped me stay on track for a smooth, normal delivery. Just eat balanced meals and you will do great!
Generally, doctors look for a fasting level below 95 mg/dL and post-meal levels below 120 mg/dL after two hours. It is best to follow your gynac's specific guidelines. Take care and stay healthy.
Based on my research and what my doctor said, the standard targets are under 95 mg/dL for fasting, under 140 mg/dL one hour after meals, and under 120 mg/dL two hours after meals. It's very important to monitor these closely to avoid gestational diabetes.
I totally understand how stressful it is to track these numbers, I used to get so anxious before every blood test. Usually, fasting should be below 95, and post-meals below 120 or 140 depending on what your doctor suggests. Sending you so much love, you're doing great!
My doctor told me fasting should ideally be under 95 mg/dL. I kept my levels perfectly managed by doing 20 minutes of light walking after meals, which my gynac allowed. Regular light movement really helps process those sugars naturally!
I'm currently in my 28th week and just did my glucose test! My doctor said under 95 for fasting is normal, but I'm still waiting for my post-meal reports. Are you guys also finding it hard to cut down on sweets?
