Gestational Diabetes tests…
Anyone doing Glucose monitoring tests for two weeks for Gestational Diabetes? Rather than the liquid test? I started mine today and my blood sugar levels were through the roof by tonight although not eating terrible foods? Started out normal this morning though? Can’t help panicking thinking I’m hurting the baby 😔

I had a ham sandwich and Diet Coke for lunch and the reading was around 10 and then evening I had a chicken burger and it was 12! Is it the carbs??
It will be the carbs, I have gestational diabetes and am on insulin every day and have a libre in my arm since 16 weeks, your body breaks down carbs into glucose so you need to limit your carbs and include more protein, fats and veg so that it's a paired meal x
