I'm 32 weeks pregnant. My results for the sugar curve are: fasting 71, after 1 hour. 165, and after 2 hours. 135. My doctor said that they were on the border of normal, but it was ok. However, it seems to me that they are too high. Please, analyze the results. If they are too high, what should I do?
Unfortunately, you are right, because the result after 1h is important for a pregnant woman - the sugar level should not exceed 135mg%. Your result is incorrect and indicates gestational diabetes. You should follow a diabetic diet with a value of 1800 - 2000 kcal / day and use a glucometer to measure the level of sugar on an empty stomach and 1 hour after each meal. If the values are above normal, the insulin should be turned on.
