Wow 4 times a day!!  If they don't help you with that, ask your doctor or the one who is selling it to you if you are getting it from a pharmacist. He might be knowing how to operate it. They want to check your random blood sugar levels to see if you are progressing well.

Exercise machine? My doctor just asked me to check online for pregnancy exercises and follow their instructions. You too can google for it for pregnancy execises suitable for your pregnancy weeks. I'm just clueless about the numbers of my test need to wait for another two weeks until I meet my doctor. It horrible.

Plus I was once asked to do some  exercise suitable during pregnancy  and 30 mins of walking to prevent from getting gestational diabetes. I actually didn't flow my doctors (diabetologist) advice. But I can ask you to eat vegetarian food more and perform more exercise. Also eat brown rice often and cook with less oil. You can improve from your condition hun.

Do you know the numbers of your blood sugar level? I tested for mine yesterday and have my doctors  iappointment in two weeks time. I'm really unsure if I have GD. My fasting blood sugar was 93, one hour 75 g  glucose was 148 and two hours was 110. I read somewhere online saying fasting blood sugar should be less than 92. I'm really confused.

Yes I had her vaginally, don't worry you can still start eating healthy now try and treat yourself to your cravings maybe once a week or have your unhealthy craving just a small portion I know it's easier said than done.  But try not to stress cause that doesn't help either.

I had it with my last pregnancy hopefully I don't have it this time around, I was really upset too. Just eat healthy lots of greens proteins and try and stay away from white breads and carbs I eat whole wheat everything and brown rice to avoid it happening this time around. Just make sure you eat healthy and exercise so it doesn't stick after pregnancy! Having a big baby causes gestational diabetes my girl was 9lbs when she was born.
