I'm so scared of having a still born baby cuz I can't get my blood sugar levels under control even…

my dad has to watch his levels so let me tell you what he does. he tests at the same exact times everyday, pays attention to carbs per serving not just what the packaging says for carbs. he tries to keep the carbs under 15g per serving. if his numbers are low, he increase the amount of carbs in his meal by just a tiny tiny amount. if they're high, he only eats a salad and burger with not really any toppings and no bread. I know it sounds really boring and bland but it's what he has to do to keep his numbers under control.

Thanks @arijane316 , I can use all the advice/help I can get!

@sktraum, what medicines are you taking? I'm a type 2 diabetic and I was having the same problem but now all is well. I go see MFM and they even put me in the hospital to get my blood sugar under control and get me on a better regimen as well.

Bread is terrible when it comes to carbs. and that's what you have to watch out for. a lot of people think it's sugars, which a small part of it is, but carbs is what controls the majority of your glucose levels. so if you eat alot of bread or anything with alot of carbs in it, you're not going to be able to keep your numbers under control

@torie_mspruitt, I'm taking glyburide 2.5mg. The dr said we will try this first before insulin. I'm just freaking out cuz now there's glucose in my urine samples at the dr too along with protein.

@sktraum, this is my opinion but I feel insulin is pretty safe during pregnancy and it's the only thing I'm on. It doesn't affect the baby but really gets you under control. My A1C was 12.5 and my doctors immediately put me in the hospital and got me on a sound regimen. I hate injecting but I don't worry about my baby anymore. Talk to them about switching over to insulin. I'm on Novolog for each meal 20, 22, 20 and Lantus 48 units at night. I check my blood sugar 4 times a day two hours after every meal and my morning fasting blood sugar. You've tried the pills and if they aren't working make them put you on a better regimen. As far as the protein I had that problem too until I went vegan. Now there's never protein in my urine. I'm not saying go plantbased but get with a nutritionist and map out a plan and follow it. Do whatever it takes to ensure you and your child's health. I will be praying for you beloved. All will be well.

@torie_mspruitt, thank u so much! I will talk to my dr about the insulin.
