Glucose results were very low

Did this happen to anyone else? Mine was 45. When I was called, the doc didn't seem worried and said to keep snacks on me and eat more protein and less simple sugars. Is that it or is there anything else I might need to know?

    I haven't done the glucose test with this pregnancy yet. But, with my last pregnancy I was very low. Basically what your Dr. said is all you need to worry about. My husband is hypoglycemic and he gets dizzy and grouchy when he hasn't eaten in a while.

    Mine was 64 and my MW said the same thing. She said that I probably crash after a lot of sugar and I do. Felt icky after the test until I ate.

    Yep, this is exactly how I felt. I had a headache and just felt generally yucky, almost dizzy, but not quite. I ate a big chicken sandwich afterward and felt better.
