High-Risk Pregnancy

My A1c

My A1C (a percentage that tells you how high your glucose levels have been running over the past 3 months) was at 11% in December.  Normal A1c is between 4% and 6 %.  Mine now is 6.3%  *giving myself a little pat on the back*

Re: My A1c

  • I'm not sure what A1c is but 6% is definitely better than 11% if normal is between 4 and 6. So, here's another pat on the back for you.
    Nutmeg, cilantro, sage, mint, thyme... these are a few of my favorite things! Visit The Nest!Visit The Nest! We have four children; one left us too soon.

  • Congrats that is fantastic.  I go and get my 2nd Tri A1C next week and I am so nervous.  I came into the pregnancy considered pre-diabetic, not full blown, so my 1 Tri A1C was 5.3 I believe.  It's so hard though I get cravings and give in, My biggest downfall is the Sprite that I seem to always want (I don't always give in), but I do sometimes.

    So I get where you are coming from and I can only imagine the changes you made to get to that number so good for you!!!!
