is it okay if you just want to eat fruits? It's all I have and water and juice that's all I've been wanting to eat could that be why I'm now gestational diabetic?
Okay I'll do that tomorrow at the appointment and ask for my level results to compare to what's normal range for myself. and yes I ate 15 mins prior they also scheduled me for another blood draw non fasting my bf said not to eat and see if there's a difference because I've never even been pregnant diabetic before. half a cup oh no I have 4-6 cups of apple juice and I water it down and atleast 4 fruits a day. Okay I'm doing that I go out to my appointments 2-3 days a were now before I just stay home but I'll minimize my juice
you can have fruit, but not all the time.. it has a lot of sugar that includes juices. my GD professional said I can have half a cup of Orange juice , Apple juice,or pineapple juice.. if my blood sugars are to low to balance it out. and or if I feel light headed. if it's to high, drink a bottle of water and go for a 30min walk..to lower the levels.
I have gestational diabetes, its not as bad as I thought I did cry thinking it was my fault. but like @michelle2220 said it has to do with the placenta, my ob explained it to me.. I. controlling it with diet and checking my blood sugar levels. and eating every 2-3 hrs.. if their putting you on meds its probably because your levels were really really high. mine was 3 points higher then normal I was fasting they usually ask to to fast before coming in, no food after 12am the day before.. ask your Dr as to why you have to take meds, instead of just controlling it with a diet??
so you think I shouldn't take the diabetes meds too then that the drs are dumb and should tested me fasting or atleast several hours after 2 in n out burgers and a milkshake lol?
