Hello Jyothika and others,
I am in 6th month and my first test for GD came out to be positive. Is it possible to have a second ( with higher conc. of sugar) negative.
Please let me know , as I am worried, if the baby would be healthy or not.
Thanks.

For my first pregnancy i had my sugar level upto 174....if you eat non veg...my diet was like this.
for breakfast
1 cup of milk
2 slices of bread
1 cheese single
1 hard boiled egg
for lunch
1 cup of rice
chicken curry or any variety of dhal,beans etc
healthy vegitable side dish
yougurt
lots of water
dinner
2 pulka chapati with veg or non veg curry
to maitain good protien level if you dont take non veg have dhal,rajma,channa etc
for snacks try having fruits,fresh veggis
try avoiding fried and sugary snacks.and limit your carb intake.
subway is a good option compared to other fast foods.
completely avoid soda pops and sweets.
everything will be fine take care.

diet during pregnancy

Maintaining a healthy diet during pregnancy is very important.

During this time, your body needs additional nutrients, vitamins and minerals.

In fact, you may need 350–500 extra calories each day during the second and third trimesters.

A diet lacking in key nutrients may negatively affect the baby’s development.
