question
Hi.. i am in my 3rd trimester.. and my post food blood sugar is 169.
I am concerned and wanted to know what are the complications of high blood sugar on baby and how to contain it. My 2nd trimester sugar was good. Doctor is saying to monitor for 1 week to take any decision on medications. I am already making diet changes -cutoff white rice and no sugar and no fruit juices

Gayatri I too had gestational diabetes and took insulin. It's nothing to worry, but please don't starve yourself thinking your sugar will go up. I did the mistake and did not gain any weight in my 3rd trimester and my baby was 2.7 kgs only but I expected more. So eat your rice and roti in moderation, cut off sugar, juices, milkshakes, bakery items etc. And go for 10 mins walk after every meal. Take care!
