Hello doctor. Am pregnant with twins. My random blood sugar tested at 3 months of pregnancy was normal.It was around 101. At 27 weeks I got tested with gestational diabletes. My readings are a bit high. FBS is 108, after one hour it is 174 and 2 hour it is 163. Please suggest what does it mean. I was not having diabetes before pregnancy as clearly shown by random blood sugar. What effect it can have on my babies and will it come back to normal after pregnancy?
I can understand your concerns. These values show that you are having gestational diabetes. And gestational diabetes is something that appears during pregnancy and goes away after pregnancy is over. Baby can be large foe date and go into hypoglycemia just after birth. But effective management can prevent complications.
