High-Risk Pregnancy

what the eff is going on with my numbers?

i had a salad with chicken & feta for lunch and 1/4 piece of pita for lunch, 134 after 2 hours. the same lunch (or caesar with grilled chicken) i usually am under 110.

it seems i can't have any carbs these days without going over 120 post meals. i emailed my endocronologist this morning so i am just waiting for an answer i am just so frustrated.

  • I guess the more pregnant you get the more the baby and the hormones and the placenta is causing your body to need more insulin for the same foods. It totally sucks!

    Hopefully you can get it in check soon. I know with me being at about 20 weeks I am doing great with my numbers but I fully expect for them to go wacky at about 26-28 weeks. 

    GL!!

  • I was having the same problem on the weekend (27 weeks)...140's at one hour with meals that would normally be under 120.

    I've started moving carbs to snack etc...spreading them out during the morning/afternoon and limiting carbs for dinner and today I had an 84 after dinner.

  • I feel ya!  Sometimes I feel like there is no method to these numbers and it is a complete crap shoot.  Did you exercise more after one meal then the other?  That is what they always ask me but I am not finding that it changes my numbers that much.
