Name: Shannu



Hi there mommies....
Hope that everybody is doing fine... I am in the 34th week rt now... things seems to B going wayward now.... From a couple of days the Sugar level seems to B shooting up...No matter what I eat.... Even chappathi is doing no good.
I tried eating Ragi.... But still it does not seem to work... Have to call up the Doc and let him know abt it... I just hope there is no majr Problem as such... the Doc has also asked me to increase the calorie intake... But things R not working out the way it should...I am getting real wild and Impatient..... Anybody having Suggestions? Please do let me know... Am really concerned abt this....
Thats all for the time being... All of U do take care of Urselves....
With lots of Love
Shannu

Hey Shannu,
Sad to know that your sugar level is going up. Well actually I have heard that GD automatically gets worse as pregnancy progresses due to hormone reaction.
I am just wondering how you are increasing your calorie intake.As you know most of the things we eat have carbs, so watch out. Try putting extra ghee in rice , dal and chappatti. Do you like peanut butter. Try eating that on crackers for snack with glass of milk. It is very filling and peanut butter has lot of fat, calories and protein. Eat 2 boiled or cooked eggs with your meal. It will fill you and give extra calories & protein. Even dal & beans have lot of carbs specially beans(chana, rajma etc).I eat only 1.5 chapatti.
If it still doesn't help doc. will put you on insulin. That's what I have been avoiding .
WIsh you all luck. Let me know how is it going. HAve you gained wt. recently?
Take care.
Roma

Glad to C Ur mail.... I just spoke to my Doc and he has told me tom meet the Dietician at the earliest.... He says if in a week there is no improvement with my Sugar level I will have to take the Insulin shots... Am really terrified..... But then am hoping for things to turn positive....
Abt the calorie intake... I am taking eggs and thats it... I am also trying out ghee.... Will get to know abt the Progress in the baby weight in my next appt with the Doc.... Then what else is the news with U.... I just hope and pray that we pass thru this phase real soon...this diet ctrl is really making me wild.....
Once again thanx for the message dear...Will try out the things U have mentioned... Meanwhile take care of Urself and keep messaging...Bye for now
With Love and Prayers
