high sugar in urine

[mischief22]

Hi guys, i went to see my midwife yesterday and she has done some blood test as i have been having headaches and gained almost 5kgs in one month... she called me tonight to say that the result did not come out good... she said that there was a high amount of sugar in my urine.. i am a bit worried as i did not have this problem with my first pregnancy... does anyone know what this means???

Drink lots of water. Mine showed sugar and doc said I was dehydrated or diabetic. I increased my water intake and next sample was fine. If diabetic you have to watch your sugar and carbohydrate intake and increase protein.

You may just be borderline gd then so may just  want you to test your bloods for a little while I can't see you suddenly getting gd it's something that happens gradually over the preg

I have had the gtt test 2 weeks ago and it came normal... but for some reason with the test 2 days ago i had sugar in the urine... my midwife is getting me to do the gtt test again and getting me to do some scans... i'm hoping i can control it with diet if i do have it.. thanks for the info guys.... i never had any complication with my first and with this one i just don't know what's going on!!

Sign of gestational diabetes but it can be controlled by healthy eating and exercise

You could have or are in early stages of gestational bdiabetes. I had it with my first pregnancy and have had my glucose tolerance test today for this pregnancy..if you test positive you will have to stick to a strict diet..manage your weight. Test your blood a few times a day..you will see a dietician or diabetic team..you have to write each blood sugar result down and the diabetic team look over it every few weeks. If you cant control it via diet..you'll.be offered metformin or.maybe insulin. If you're gestational diabetic you need to eat the diet they give you its very important so baby doesn't get too big.  I was very careful and my baby ended up only 6lb 6 and a half and I had avaginal delivery. They will give you more scans to.monitor your babys size to make.sure baby isnt getting too big. If you end up being diagnosed and want someone to talk to.feel free to message me. You might not even have it. Just be careful to eat no sugary foods or white carbs really. Good luck..hope this helped xx

I would be worried that it could be gestational diabetes with sugar in your urine. Have you had your 1 hr GTT? Glucose test? Gestational diabetes doesn't happen with every pregnancy and usually goes away after pregnancy but if you do have it you will need to change your diet.
Best of luck to you and your baby!
