gestional diabetes

Anyone have it? I was just diagnosed about a week or so ago. I am following a diet & counting my carbs (boy do I muss sweets already!)

Anyway, I can never get my sugar levels under the recommended 80 in the morning! I eat a small snack containing 15g of carbs mixed some protein like I was told. I keep trying to try different snacks to experiment what works but I am always in tgw 90s-110s. Any suggestions of snacks that might work??

  • My go to snack was turkey pepperoni and cheese.
    Warning No formatter is installed for the format bbhtml
  • Arcadia1114 where there any carbs in that? I was told to have 15g of carbs with side of protein. I usually do a rice cake with PB, cheese with nuts, etc. Again, this morning I was at 97 :o( My husband told me to try chicken but I just couldn't stomach eating meat 30min before bed... but, if it helps with my health maybe I should try it.

  • A lot of people have ice cream as their last snack and it helps with their numbers. Not the healthiest I know. But the combo of dairy, fat, and carbs works for a lot of people.

  • I have been between 90-100 (a few times at 107).... Each night I experiment with something new to see if that works so I will try above suggestions, thanks!

    This was my go to bedtime snack when I had GD while pregnant with my son. I ate the low sugar variety of ice cream.
