Hi all,
i’ve been on fast acting for breakfast/dinner and slow-acting insulin at night for my fasting. I have GD.
It’s been 2 days since my blood numbers are good within range (97 fasting, 135 1hr post-meal) although my insulin dosage hasn’t changed for a week and i didn’t even walk in the past 2 days. Usually I go about 140-150 post lunch/dinner without walking. My portions are about the same. I even tried to increase my carb a little bit this morning and 1hr came out at 135. with that same amount of carb, and no walking, normally i would get like 160.
I’ve read that a drop in blood sugar meaning something might be wrong with the placenta but then am I too early for this? in a week, i will have an anatomy scan and they will look at the placenta. For now, both of my doctor and the nutritionist dont’ even worry although i’m worried. the obgyn offers a heart rate listening and said a scan now won’t help because to look at the placenta, you need to be around 18 weeks and i already scheduled one for next week (6 days exact).
Have anyone have this issue before? Do we have low-sugar days in 2nd trimester or as we get later, the blood sugar shall have bee increased?
thanks for your help
Helen
