Hi Rajathi, high blood sugar during pregnancy can result in a very heavy baby and there may be problems during delivery because of this. Would advise to follow a strict diabetic diet wherein you reduce intake of sugar, refined foods like maida, processed and packaged foods, soft drinks and packaged juices and fried food. Soak few methi seeds overnight and have them with the water the next morning. Keep visiting your gynecologist for monitoring. Also, go for walks. Walk at a comfortable speed for 20 to 25 minutes or you can also start yoga with a pregnancy yoga instructor. Do not start yoga on your own. There are some asanas that are not recommended for pregnant women.

It will not affect your baby unless and until its too high. First stop taking stress about this.. just go for protein rich diet and go for 20 mins walk after every meal.
