This was great, thanks, I've been looking for "which fruit has the least amount of sugar?" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Ever heard of - Anebriel Foundational Ascendancy - (search on google ) ? It is an awesome one off guide for discovering how to reverse type 2 diabetes without the headache. Ive heard some decent things about it and my m8 got great success with it.

If you do check BGL in the middle of the night, what should they be? Also if they are dropping and rebounding by the morning does that mean you need to eat a bedtime snack I stead? Thanks
My oldest son is in his early 20's and he has type 1 diabetes. But thank God for this piece of article ua-cam.com/users/postUgkxVYhghKWmrUgXARZ_ydZTvmmcrw5L0I5i At first he thought he had the flu and was lying down on the bed for three days until his sister took him to the hospital. They took his blood and it was 600. What I do not understand is how he could have gotten it, since no one in the family has it. But he is winning the battle now. This is good stuff.
It’s a good thing she took him to the hospital. Almost 20 yrs. ago, I worked with a gal who lost her seven year old son to undiagnosed diabetes. She took him to the doctor and they said he just had a virus. She took him home and a couple of days later found him dead in bed. It was so shocking and devastating!!
I’m so glad your son made it!! ❤
This 20 minute video was more helpful than any of the drs I have talked to. They are a group that was recommending 175 grams of carbs at 13 weeks pregnant and going up from there. I don't do that it made me feel sick. I feel best if half my plate is vegetables. Reading lily's book has helped a lot, but also knowing that there are other physician/dieticians that don't subscribe to high carb during pregnancy is helpful.
I was recommended 175-245 gram of carbs per day at 16 wks pregnant. I’m so frustrated because I didn’t eat a lot of carbs prior to pregnancy, so I tried to get as close to that 175 and it made me feel sick. I’m so frustrated now at 18+ wks and stressed, because they prescribed insulin that I’ll start this wk. This is all so scary. I had a pretty healthy diet prior, but I’m 41 and have family history with diabetes so I figured I would have GD but wasn’t expecting insulin. And I just hate eating all the carbs they want me to eat. I also walk 2-4 miles daily. 😩
Just diagnosed last week & so frustrated because I eat much healthier now than I did in my first pregnancy & I didn't get gestational diabetes in my first pregnancy.
Sammmmeee like..how? 😢
Why is it safe for our blood sugar level to be under 140 an hour after a meal but dangerous if it's over 95 when fasted?
For e.g if my level is 120 after a meal that's good but if it's before a meal it's not. Are high fasting levels (over 95 but under 140) dangerous to the baby?
It would be so helpful if instead of talking lecture style you could also do some bullet points highlighting main points to remember. I am such a visual learner that it is just an overload of information for me. Thank you so much. I am only struggling with elevated fasting sugar but never more than 109.
Smriti Zalpuri Thank you so much for this feedback! 🙏🙏🙏 I will include some slides with main points in the video to help other visual learners like you next time :) Feel free to ask any questions you have.
Smriti Zalpuri fasting is 109 or after food?
I've been trying to find decent books for meals!! I've been having such a hard time with the overall diagnosis. I want to check these books out for sure. I'm just so lost 😭 It's a lot to take in and it's depressing.

This video ...... is lifee chaningggg....
I noticed all the key points n followed then just once..
In a single day my GD fasting blood sugar level came down from 105 to 95...
Like ohhhh my goddd i am sooo happy....
I saw thousands of videos but no one talked about carbohydrate , liver, glycemic index and all....
It wasss so much helpful...
Its my mid 7th month n i was extremely tensed about my blood sugar level.
The only thing that has mostly worked for me to get my fasting sugar levels to 5.0 mmol or below (think it’s 90 for US/UK) has been at least 30 mins of cardio after dinner. I tried different types of snacks (Greek yogurt, nuts, PB and whole grain bread, cheese) but they never worked consistently. Hope it helps everyone and good luck it’s tough but we can get through it!!!
i habe same problem.could you explain about cardio
maya Ali hi, I’m doing stationary cycling on playing just dance on the Nintendo switch. But tbh, it helped me in week 29-33 but my fasting levels have been increasing towards week 34 so it’s now 90-93 (5.0-5.2 mmol), so hormones still play a factor! But it still helps to keep the levels in check though. Hope it helps!!
@@chermainelee4299 do you have snacks every night? Please could you share the snacks that best worked for you. I am struggling with my fasting levels. I Will start exercising after dinner.
it's really helpful. After cardio what snacks are u taking. I don't know n confused abt snacks. mine are coming different mostly . n high mostly. More 5.2 ..so very stressed. Don't know what to do ..thanks for sharing abt doing cardio thing. I m on 28 hopefully this help me. I have older one around who keeps me on toes n makes me tired to think or do anything after cooking
Theoretically if you have a high fasting BS which is bad for baby long term couldn’t you just not go too long in between snacks/meals? Example I work overnight shift so my “fasting” doesn’t start until 8am when I get home. Some days I sleep a full 8 hours other days (now that I’m pregnant) I’m up in 3, then I have to force myself to be hungry until I’ve hit the 7-8 hour mark to test my fasting. Wouldn’t it just be easier to eliminate a fasting sugar altogether in a case like mine? Or even if I didn’t work overnight and had a normal sleep schedule, why not get up halfway through the night and have a snack to balance it out.
Sorry that’s such a long question but it’s been driving me crazy!
Sarah M
This is such a good question and I don’t think all health care providers would answer the same. What I do know is that in research they look at fasting numbers and the higher the fasting number the more increased risk for baby and mom. The fasting number is to evaluate how well your body is handling the sugar that your liver is putting out without the confounding factor of food intake. We can only evaluate this when food intake is not an influencing factor (usually overnight). Each blood sugar is just a snapshot to help try to get a view of what is happing overall and to look for trends. There is no research to show if a woman with GD keeps snacking and avoids fasting to keep sugar down that risk is reduced. It’s possible that it decreases the risk, but it’s also possible that it’s not about the individual number, but related to how well the body moves sugar into the cell overall and between the times we are testing.
For your individual case, it does seem awful to leave you starving after an overnight shift. You could ask your doctor if you can eat on those days? I would think they would be less concerned if overall or on days you do sleep 8 hours you are getting fastings in target.
Sorry, I don’t have a better answer. Looks like we could use more research in this area.
This is so clear and concise Jess! And good on you for reminding women that it's ok and not their fault!
How To Make Dinner Thanks Paula!
This was great, I have been researching "apple cider vinegar insulin spike" for a while now, and I think this has helped. Have you ever come across - Panadison Substratal Preponderance - (do a google search ) ? It is a good one off product for discovering how to reversing insulin resistance and diabetes without the hard work. Ive heard some pretty good things about it and my partner got great success with it.
Hey beautiful
Do you think it's important to always have a bedtime snack?? I've tried a few no carb snacks and at times didn't work so just wondering what you recommend? I really wanna get below 5.2 x
I try to skip my carbs at dinner and have a protein rich dinner post which my blucon shows perfect morning fasting sugars.
Why is medication is always talked about first? How about supplements like magnesium ? I heard was good for lowering insulin resistance ?
Hello, I have a question which concerns me. I took glucose tollerance test and the results were the following: 5.23 fasting sugar, 5.65 glucose level after 1 hour, 5.55 glucose level after 2 hours. My health care provider still suggested to consult with endocrinologist, mainly because of fasting sugars. On the other hand, I read that if I start testing my blood sugars every day, my target fasting sugars should be under 5.3. Therefore, I cannot understand why my health care provider sees any risk in my test results (fasting sugars are under 5.3, but she said it would be better bellow 5.1). Would you have any idea why? Thank you.
clown
now negative from Type 2 diabetes after did a Test , it was like a miracle , i really can't thank you enough Dr Igudia , You cured me naturally after I came across your channel on UA-cam , with your herbs , May God bless you Handsomely.
So if my morning blood sugar is the only high number then when do I take the apple cider vinegar? Before bed?
Would love to know this aswell
I’m having trouble with fasting number. I think I’ll try acv before bed.. did it help you?
@@cindyriveraahs , Did it help? Same problem here.
@@cindyriveraahs did it help? I will try today and add lemon as well. It’s my 3rd day :( and still high :(
@@adelavalladares not really. I just ended up eating a big dinner with high protein and skip bedtime snack. But doesn’t hurt to give it a try, might work on you!
I normally check 4x a per doctor: Fasting, after BF, after lunch, and after dinner. All except for the fasting are excellent. Usually my fasting is between 95-110. It's so overwhelming.
Same here.
Same ☹️
@@family-peace-love I don't think it's meant to be that way but it IS harder to control the fasting numbers
I have the same problem right now. I am 21 weeks. Did they put you on insulin? Right now they put me on metformin and I am scared they will make me take insulin soon. First pregnancy, and I am having a hard time.
Same here. All numbers good except fasting. Idk what to do
I am on 35 weeks and my OB-GYN predicted GD in my first trimester because I have had PCOS for 12 years, which increases insulin resistance. My blood sugar level spiked too high after meal, it could not be controlled with oral hypoglycemi and finally had to switch to Insulin, even then my endocrinologist had to increase the insulin dose last week. I kept researching for low GI foods, ended up decreasing carbs and replacing it with healthy proteins and fats (lentil soup and cheese worked wonders). I am praying that my baby does not have any complications due to my GD.
Was it GD and you were not pre diabetic ? As facing the same problem reply it would help me and how's your baby know?
Was your baby okay?? Am currently 6 weeks and am so worried.
@@mitchellsworld8356 I had to undergo caeserian section on 37 weeks, my God's grace everything were okay and she passed the 2 year mark on this december.
God bless you. I am following all ur videos. You have been a blessing to all my problems in pregnancy.
Should I exercise before bed? To keep my fasting numbers low??
Yes it helps ,like walking
Did it help? I will try it. Plz let me know
I am Doing that right now, eat a early dinner exercise and that's it, have a hot drink then bed.. I usually wake up during the night to go toilet, so I will check blood sugar level then, and if its low, I will know my liver is playing up if I wake up with high numbers.
Didn’t work for me
@@bluestarofdavid2 It didn't work for me either.
Hi, I'm struggling with high fasting blood sugar and I have two issues: 1. I can only sleep 3-4h a night. If i wake up at 3am, I can't fall back to sleep. The less I sleep, the higher my morning fadting sugar. 2. I was diagnosed this week with an incompetent cervix and ordered complete bed rest. Lack of movement doesn't help. Any advice for pregnant women in my situation? Thank you very much :)
Hi! Not a dr or health professional at all but I also have GD and am on bed rest for severe IC. All my doctors and diabetes educators have agreed that the benefits of most types of exercise is not worth the risk with this specific combination of complications. So basically they said not to worry about exercise and focus on diet and medication as applicable (I am on insulin). However you can do some bicep curls or arm lifts from bed, for 5 min 2x/day. Hope this helps anyone reading this.
@@laylahamidou I agree regarding the risk and thank you for your suggestion! I actually followed the "Incompetent Cervix: Bed Rest During Pregnancy" program available on this channel. Did it every evening. And only once a week a 30 min walk. I also found something that worked for me with the blood sugar values: a keto dessert 1h after my evening meal (e.g. keto cheesecake or brownie), followed by few spoons of Skyr before bed (so another hour after this keto dessert). It worked like magic and I convinced my doctor to keep me away from Insulin. Once I passed the 38 week mark, my levels started to calm down slowly. Now I'm 3 days away from my due date, trying to get this baby out! :D Baby is doing great and it's in the 55 percentile growth wise, no need for C-section. I wish you and your baby all the best and may you reach as close as possible to your due date!
Hi Jessica!
I am 46 and currently expecting my 11th baby. This is my 2nd pregnancy with GD. My 1st was diet controlled but this go round my fasting sugars are a bit higher.
I have discussed insulin with my MFM doc but I have a specific concern.
Between pregnancies I developed Mast Cell issues which includes hives.
I have had hives at least twice during this pregnancy. As I near the end of my pregnancy I know that my mast cell issues will return and I am concerned that insulin may be a trigger. There are several ladies on both of my GD FAcebook groups who have allergy type symptoms from insulin.
My question is do fasting blood sugars that run 100-105 really require insulin?
I feel that even though they are elevated and “above target” the risk of chronic hives for 10 weeks is a real one (I am almost 29 weeks and usually deliver between 38-39 weeks)
Hello, each case is different and the risk of higher sugars is a gradient so the higher the sugars the higher the risk. If you have other risk factors then you will have to evaluate with your doctor which is the greater risk. Since this may be a difficult decision for you to make with your health care team, have you tried all the lifestyle options to help already?
hi jessica.your diabetes has gone after delivery?
I am seeing a lot of conflicting reports. However, my doctor had me take a 1hr glucose test but had me fast for 8 hrs before. I have seen others post in which you normally don't fast for the 1-hour test. Would that have increased my sugars? Also, I did not eat well the day before. Would that have affected the score as well? Making sure my score didn't misread due to miscommunication of how I should prepare for the test. They said my sugars were pretty high and didn't even recommend the 3hr glucose to me, just said a diabetes team would reach out.
How did things end up for you?
My nutritionist has told me to have 60g of carbs PER MEAL and you're telling me we should have 90-120 for the whole day?! No wonder I keep failing my glucose tests! 😑
I feel like they are just sabotaging me...wow
Mine said max 45g ar lunch/dinner, 30 at breakfast, and 15-30 in snacks. Total 11-14 servings of 15g a day. I do 11 usually. For sure 60 g in a meal would be too much for me...
She said
90-150 grams carbohydrate all day in total
20-40 grams of carbs per meal
15-20 grams of carbs bedtime snack
I just started seeing the maternal diabetes center at the health group I go to., and they want me to eat 175 g carbs per day.
In my mind, I'm like, how??? Before pregnancy, I was at just under 100 anyway due to type 2 diabetes.
Everything that worked for me before pregnancy is not working anymore 😒
@@crmontes2013 Woah! What is up with these nutritionists?! I feel like only body builders need that many carbs! 😅
@@CaitsFavoriteColors seriously!! I am so upset 😡
I haven’t been diagnosed with GD (yet) but I checked my fasting blood sugar right when I woke up this morning bc this has been some concern for me since I’m obese and have familial history of type 2 diabetes. It was 119. I didn’t do anything but brush my teeth (no water or food and laid in bed) and it went down to 87 after like an hour. I tested 1 hour after eating breakfast it was at 166. When I had dinner a couple hours later i decided to do a brisk walk for 10 mins and at the 1 hour mark I check my glucose I was at 127. I’m wondering if this means I’m borderline or I am GD bc of my fasting blood sugar. I wish I checking my blood sugar earlier bc I genuinely did not know how harmful it can be to baby and I don’t know how long my fasting blood sugar has been this high. Thanks so much for all ur info and anything else to help with fasting blood sugars would be much appreciated! I’m super confused about mine bc I am not sure which one to go off of. I’m currently 27 weeks pregnant. I did a one hour glucose test at 19 weeks and I was at 134 btw. Not sure how my glucose test at 28 weeks will go and I’m super nervous seeing these numbers today.

Hey, how are you doing? Were you able to get your numbers under control? I hope your pregnancy is going well.
Hey! Are chia seeds taking in empty stomach are safe during pregnancy or for gastational diabetes?
Hi mam,im 17th week pregnancy...my GD is very bad in the morning even i fast from 10pm..i started to take insulin, but still worst my morning GD reading .. My insulin unit dose also increased to 12 units, but couldn't solve this problem every morning..why it so?
what I don't understand is my blood sugar levels are low/normal why I was diagnosed. When fasting it's 94 after meal 124 after Starbucks frappe pumpkin spice was 94 so weird I expected 200!
Anytime I eat carbohydrate at night I wake up with sunken eyes in the morning,
What could be the cause please ?
Very useful information. Only my question is not related with pregnancy if a person is having fasting blood glucose level as 13 and not on medication, how do we know the liver is producing extra sugar and what food to take to get a healthy liver.
karishma mudaliar karishma mudaliar Thank you for your question. If someone that is not pregnant has a fasting blood sugar of 13, the liver is not producing “extra” sugar. The liver stores sugar that we eat (carbs) and then slowly releases it 24-hours / day to keep our blood sugar levels stable. If blood sugar levels are high then either someone has insulin resistance and has difficulty moving the sugar from the blood into the cells and/or they are not producing enough insulin to “unlock” the cell door to move sugar from blood to cells. So a “healthy liver” diet wouldn’t solve the problem. The liver is just doing it’s job. You would want to focus on a healthy lifestyle to reduce insulin resistance. Www.fitaftergd.com/preventtype2
Hi , am 32 week pregnant Nd my gd in fasting blood sugar are 103 and am taking metformin 500 mg at bed time can u suggest me how to control suggestions please?
What happened? I'm 30 weeks and am on merformin now and still having the same issues. Is your baby ok??
This was so helpful! I have been living a real-life nightmare with these doctors and trying to get my diabetes under control. I did have a question you mentioned in the video you don't want to have low sugars but didn't explain why. But also how to combat the low dips and then high rises in the middle of the night. This is what is happening to me and I have lowered my insulin intake and even skipped dosage and it still drops dangerously low (40s).
Your cells need a certain amount of sugar to function. “Too low” puts you at risk of confusion and even going unconscious. Reach out to your doctor right away if you are experiencing lows.
Morning sugars are never my problem. Evening sugars are and have always been. My fasting sugars are in the 70s and 80s. My breakfast sugars are great!
If I eat more than 20 carbs at dinner… then my after dinner sugars are high.
So before my glucose test for gd for pregnancy the night before, should I do more high intensity exercises to get a lower morning blood sugar level? Thank you!
Is 97 mg/dL fasting blood sugar normal? I am not following any diet but during the day my values 2 h after food it's under 115 mg/dL. I am frustrated about my mornings results.
Anything under 99 fasting is normal.
@@jdc7050 99 and under for non-pregnant women is normal. For pregnant some doctors want you to be under 90.
👌
I am 36 week and I have been on NPH and I keep increasing it by one unit every night per my doctor but my morning fast glucoses are still above 95 most days. She keeps telling my to lower my fats and I have and it’s not helping. I’m up to 19 units and it’s just getting frustrating and I am at the point of saying screw it and just eat because I need to eat for us. I feel like I can’t eat anything. We also haven’t been able to pinpoint what may or may not spike my sugars. I could have the same thing for three days and it would still be all over the board. What would your suggestions be?
your sugar is fine now afer baby?
I am in my first trimester and my fasting was 103 today :(. Will def change my diet
Idk if this is real. But I love
Spicy food and I had a moment where my blood sugar wasn’t great. It was a high stress day and I work retail. A coworker offered me two jalapeños and I was desperate to eat a vegetable and I ate two of them. 20 minutes later my dizziness stopped and when I tested my hour glucose is had dropped. So now I have spicy pickled peppers and they seemed to help. Listen to your doctor tho.
Now 1 and half month and i am taking Insulin plsssss can u guide me reduce my Blood Sugar Maam plssssss i request u
My dinner glucose is really good but my fasting glucose is still high around 110-115
Fastings are really challenging :( Some Mom’s try everything and because of their hormones they still struggle. You can control your carbs amounts, do low GI choices, increase healthy fats, protein and fiber, add some acidic foods, endure you aren’t low on your b-vitamins, add 45 + min activity per day... hope that have you some ideas. The moms in the FB group have great suggestions too if you aren’t already in there! facebook.com/groups/2097872227176950/?ref=share

I have been monitoring my blood sugar from past 4 days ..my after meal is totally depends on food and its norml range but fasting sugar comes between 94-107 no matter what i eat in night .. i am taking dinner at 8-8.30 pm and not eating anything after that and checking my fasting at 7 am .. what should be the window ..please reply
Managing my fasting glucose has been very challenging. Limit in Australia is 5.0 mmol. Not having snack after dinner and doing one of your pregnancy HIIT classes before bed was working. But no longer at 35 weeks. Now trialling the 1 serving of low GI carbs before bed. Whilst it has brought it down, I am still 0.1 and 0.2 over. Thanks for reassuring me not to beat myself up about it and making me feel more comfortable with the prospect of insulin should the doctor go that way.
You are doing amazing, Rachael! You are testing and trying. Yes, be kind to yourself. Some moms can do everything and their body still just doesn’t produce enough insulin to overcome the insulin resistance. Also keep in mind that in a week or so your sugars may level off or even decrease as your placenta’s hormone production decreases a little. But also don’t stress if your sugars just increase until the end.., your diabetes team will help you. Sending you strength to get through this! Be so proud at all the work you have put in!
Its very difficult to control the fasting blood sugar. My 3 months sugar is perfect. Issue only with fasting blood sugar around 120, even after taking insulin. Am in 37 weeks. Everything is normal for baby so far. Is there any issue will cause to baby after birth? Am really worried. Please advise.

Mam I am pregnant and I am having Diabetes
I had a horrible MFM doctor he said bc I was overweight and had gestational diabetes my baby wouldn’t make it. All he did every time I saw him was remind me how overweight I was and how that would kill my baby. I did everything they told me to do I was so strict about my diet. I ended up on insulin and was told that was my fault and when my baby came at 32 weeks they said it was bc of my being overweight. I thought I gave myself gestational diabetes I was a wreck the whole pregnancy he was such a jerk shouldn’t be a doctor.
I’m also overweight and was just diagnosed with GD. I am sorry he said that to you, what a horrible doctor! I can’t imagine the anxiety and depression he put you through. How are you today and your baby? Did you ever end up reporting this doctor?

Do you know if it is safe to breastfeed when you have been put on metformin.

I am not having a hard time with blood sugar being high, I'm having a hard time getting it to stay up. Soooooo stressful and confusing
Wich food we I be eating to stop it
My fast number always below 70 I'm afraid that its too low, have any tip to get a little higher fasting number?
That is a normal number.
@@crystall9522 hello my friend
Hey
What’s actually considered to be a low blood sugar ?for fasting and after meal?thank you
I’m 29 weeks pregnant. Last night I checked my blood sugar after dinner and it was 146. Should I be worried? This is the first time my blood sugar was this high. Usually it’s in the range it should be in (90-130) one hour post meals. I’m taking this one a little too hard. I had some juice with the meal I ate. Could that have been what made my blood sugar spike?
I have gestational diabetes and 2 hrs after dinner, they want my sugar less than 120
They said no juices for me btw
I know it's after the fact now but it's juice is a no go. I am going to start making my own iced tea (decaffeinated) with stevia. Stevia and my own things seem to be working for me. I also plan to cut out all grains such as bread, rice, and pasta.
Thankyou very helpful and explained really well.
Hello I'm 10 weeks pregnant I'm already type 1 diabetes I'm already trying to ceep it in control but during the morning is higher than during the day or night I'm already checking by diat and Insulin now start exercies as well don't know wht I. Do extra
Keshilla shpirterore You have Type 1 diabetes? Type 1 is an autoimmune disease which destroys the function of all beta cells of the pancreas. Very different from gestational diabetes. Do you mean you have gestational, but you already require insulin? Mornings are often the most difficult to control. Do you have a doctor or diabetes team helping you?
After how many hours of sleeping I should take the test?
im 29 weeks pregnant with GD. non of my readings are in the normal range. especially before breakfast as high as 151. im so stressful and the diet suggested by doctor just doesn't work for me..
Megan Ma Hi Megan! Congratulations on your pregnancy! Did you grab the meal plan? www.fitaftergd.com/meal-plan ? If you try all the lifestyle things, it just may be that your pancreas isn’t producing enough insulin to overcome the insulin resistance from the hormones your placenta is producing. Feel free to reach out with any specific questions :)
Megan Ma I have been diagnosed with GD @ 24 weeks my fasting numbers were the highest until... around 10 pm at night I started having 1teaspoon of pasturised apple cider vinegar in a glass of water and right after I have a toast and peanut butter both low GI... having an 8 hour gap in between and test my fasting level around 6am... my fasting numbers have been good... I hope this helps🙂
jeet king Thanks for sharing! Where do you get your pasteurized apple cider vinegar. I know some moms have a hard time finding it.
Pregnancy and Postpartum TV Hi There, I live in Australia and actually the pasturise is the normal ACV, the one you would use in salads...its clear without the mother. I think in America you can use the brand Heinz!
jeet king Thanks! I found it online at least :) I will look in the salad dressing isle again too, but haven’t seen it in our grocery stores 😕
Hi mam,I am 27weeks pregnant.My glucose fasting result is 79.2mg/gL,having glucose after 1hr is 198mg/gL and 2hr is 183.6mg/gL.i didn’t get the chance to visit doctor bcz next doctors visit on May..I am very depressed about this.This is my 1st pregnancy and 31yrs old.I am in Canada,no checkup this month due to Covid 19.Is any problem for my baby?pls answer me..Now I am started the diet by following instruction from many you tube videos
Hema S Hi Hema. I’m sorry you are feeling depressed about this. You will be ok. Great job on starting what you can. The gestational diabetes clinics in Canada are great and will help you. Your numbers are out of target. I’m in Canada also and diabetes clinics are still seeing patients (some are doing phone call or virtual appointments). It’s likely your doctor will call you when they review the numbers, but it’s a good idea call your doctor right away to follow up about a referral to a clinic. You will be ok, but you need to have your doctor or diabetes team look at your numbers and help you. Sending you a big virtual hug.
Pregnancy and Postpartum TV Thank you so much mam for your valuable reply😍.
I bought accu check,today I checked,fasting 5.2mmol/L, 1hr after breakfast 9.1,after lunch 7.9....these ranges are out of control or not??please reply mam..
Fasting is just below border. And post meals are high
@@nius640 please change your diet. We Indians tend to eat lots of carbohydrates in each meal, specially in breakfast. Breakfast needs to be very low on carbs because insulin resistance is greatest in the morning. If you eat eggs, then please have eggs and milk or a slice of bread with lots of cheese and avocado and yogurt
I have to take 16 units of insulin per night, but my fasting numbers seem to be higher than before I started taking insulin (in my opinion). Drs just keep giving me more, and I'm trying what they tell me to do, but I'm not too sure why this is happening.
Dear please replay.. has you diabets gone after dilivery?
Im so stressed and overthinking about it.
Hi .. i have gestational diabetics and im currently 31 weeks pregnant and taking glybruide 2.5 mg . But in my sterday obgyn visit im 31 weeks pregnant but i measured inly 29 weeks worried a lot.. is that because of my diet ? Pls clarify me .waiting for your reply
No, it's unlikely because of your diet unless you are restricting way too much and not meeting your nutrient needs. Is your doctor concerned or just you? Sometimes babies are just a little smaller.
Hi ma’am. Thank you so much for sharing! I’m currently 30 weeks pregnant and feel like I’ve tried every trick in the book to get my fasting down 😞 exercising after dinner, cinnamon in my tea, snacking on protein only at night, ice cream and peanut butter at night (bad idea for me). I did gain some good nuggets from your video. I havnt been counting my carbs throughout my meal. My after meal numbers are always low so I probably haven’t been sticking to the 90-120 carb a day. And I will give the apple cider trick a try! Just ordered some apple cider supplements so I’m hopeful it’ll work. If not…medication or insulin may be in my future. My question is, how many failed attempts do I get before being put on meds/insulin? My fasting numbers have been going up and down for 2 weeks so far…sometimes in the low 90’s sometimes in the highs. My target is 95.
try avoiding fats after 2 PM
Hi did you try the apple cider? How did you did. I'm in the same situation now and I don't know what to do.
@@vargas7080 the apple cider thing didn’t work for me. What did was lowering the amount of carbs I had for dinner. I literally just ate meat and veggies each evening at 6 or 7pm. So like steak with a side of green beans. Or burger meat with a garden salad, etc. That actually brought my fasting levels down. You can splurge a little during lunch and have a little more carbs then, but dinner is what makes or break your fasting levels. At least that’s what happened in my case
@@brittanysmith3716 I only eating meat and vegetables for dinner too. It lowers my fasting sugar and I stopped snacking after dinner.
@@brittanysmith3716 I will try this and see.
How to know types of diabetes?
Extremely well explained thank you
Happy it was helpful :) Thanks so much!
Haii mam,i am an indian working in kuwait .this is my second pregnancy .i had gdm on my first pregnancy .so my second pregnancy i did my OGTT on first trimester then after 2 hr my gtt was 8.6. My docter advise me to take tab metformine 500gm after lunch and after dinner ..after taking tablet 2hrs from food my sugar level 5.6-6 .my question is it safe to taking tab metformin from the first trimester.
prajeesh ravindran Many women take Metformin first trimester, especially those with PCOS first trimester. It does cross the placenta barrier so some moms opt to take insulin instead.
Hi.am 9 month pregnant.my fasting suger was 105. Afer one hour glucose test my suger was 251 and after 2 hours result was 228.
I did this test two days ago.And in altrasound my baby weight is 3.1 kg.altrasound specialist said baby is normal. Am too much stress.can l moniter my suger at home every day after and before meals.or should I go to hospital for daily monitering.
Please sugest me can I use chicken.motton in lunch and dinner.
Thanks in advance.
Hello Sajida, I'm so sorry you are so stressed. Yes, your blood sugars are out of the target range. You should bring them to a doctor or your diabetes team so they can make recommendations. They will make medication or insulin recommendations for you. I'm not sure what is in your chicken motton recipe, but from other recipes that I'm finding online it should be OK. If you have more questions feel free to join our gestational diabetes support group facebook.com/groups/2097872227176950/ You are almost there!
اختي كانك عربية طلع عندي نفس قيم يلي عندك وعم يقولولي مابقى يروح بعد الحمل سالتك بالله راح منك السكر بعد الحمل ولا ضل
If you were already got damaged on your can crius where the tail is that deals with glucose and all that how are you keep your gestational diabetes down?
Hey beautiful
Very helpful! Thank you!
when/how are girls using apple cider vinegar?
Put it in water
I know this is an old video but I hope you reply. My ob says he’s not going to diagnose me with GD when my 3hr glucose was fasting @ 77, 1hr @ 214, 2hr @ 208, and 3hr at 88. Those numbers alone, I believe would say I have gd. What do you think??
Wow my glucose numbers were significantly lower and I was diagnosed with GD.
Your ob is good. I was diagnosed with GD with lower numbers than yours all because my fasting was 99, the same as their standard but 1hr and 2hrs was normal so my doctor doesn’t understand why the fasting is high besides I have a normal A1C too. Your fasting is great plus your numbers reduced as time passes so it means your body is using the glucose well. Nobody will consume that amount of sugar they give to us at the hospital at once and I think some healthcare professionals forget that.
Oh this was so useful, thank you.
my fasting is 99mg/dl is this normal can someone help me
Hi Ivette, the American guidelines are
My blood sugar was always high in the morning. So I had to take insulin before bed 12 units. That was the only thing that helped.
When I fixed my diet it stopped the acid reflux as well. I did not exercise but I was as active as I could be to keep the circulation in my body good.
your sugar is fine after baby?
I qm on insulin, and my fasting blood sugar still high..and 2rs after meals my sugar still high like ,8.3 , 7.3,6.6.
I'm so stress
This was GREAT thank u
Instead of taking glybruide i gave a try to small apple with peanut butter my fasting glucose came to 97 . So is there any possible to reduce few more numbers? How to make the numbers to within 95 ?
Hi Kavitha, Have you already reduced your carbs as much as you and your doctor feel safe? Are you doing the most amount of activity that you can safely manage? ua-cam.com/video/zvz9WMxVnJw/v-deo.html
Hello
👍
🙌
I have heard of the apple cider vinegar helping control blood sugar level. If I want it to help my fasting number, should I drink this before or after my evening snack?
After evening snack or also with meals. The acidity will lower the glycemic index and blunt the blood sugar spike.
Hello
Is keto bread a safe option in gestational diabetes?
Yes, you can just add however many carbs your diabetes provider recommended to it :) or have it as a snack if you didn’t require carbs at that time.
👍
