GD numbers higher than normal?

I am so confused. I have GD. I am on insulin 3 times a day and 4 finger pricks. I eat almost the same thing every day. However, today my fasting number were way over and then my after lunch number was waayyyyyy high. Does anyone else have an off day for no reason? My numbers are usually just so good, I can?t understand it?

    I can not figure out this GD thing. Im losing my mind. Tell me why chicken with brocolli and a half of baked potato skyrockets me? It's like one day I am good the next day my blood sugar is way too high.

    It does get better.  My fasting numbers wouldn't go down, so now, I take medicine at night.  I'm all good now.  I have a high here and there, but barely over.  I know that I can't eat bread at all, or my number spikes.  Good luck,

    I often don't eat as many carbs as they prescribe, either. But yes, occasionally I have a high here and there and I can't figure out why.  If I can't pinpoint why it may have been high, I just chalk it up to a fluke and pay attention when I eat th

    Thanks everyone for the feedback...I don't feel as crazy :)  I just get so frustrated when I have to hand my numbers in to my dr and I know they aren't what I had hoped.  Thank you again for the support, its nice to know that we are all in this

    There is also sometimes a hormone surge that happens between 28-32 weeks that may bump up your numbers, even on foods that would normally be good. GD is so wonky. :(

    Once in a while I do have weird spikes even though I am eating the same thing I do every day.  I started to see a pattern that if I would eat then go sit on the couch or stay at my desk at work my numbers would be high.  After I eat I try to mov
