Answer

Dont worry..(ipatidaaka nenu bhayapadi ninnu dont worry ani chepthunna...i feel funny)hehe
actual ga naa doc cheppina dani prakaram...first GD test pass ayina vallaki kuda GD unde chances unnayi anta...let me tell u in detail abt this

-->33-35 madhyalo oka sari test cheyistharu doc's malli endukante..just to make sure that u dint develop GD in later weeks of pregnancy...kontha mandhiki first GD test normal vachina kuda , that does'nt mean that they wont develop GD in tha later weeks of pregnancy anta...

--> Actual ga Diabetes ki one of the reason might me heriditory...But GD which u get during pregnancy ki heriditiy tho sambandham unna lekapoyina kuda vache chances unnayi..but that will go away once u deliver..So dont worry

--> Inko vishyam enti ante..idi anni cases lo correct kakapovachu...But doc cheppina dani prakaram.. 6 - 8.2 lbs madhyalo weight tho putte babies are normal babies...antha kante ekkuva weight gain cheisnhdi baby ante mathram..that might be due to the reason that the mother had developed GD in the later weeks of pregnancy ani ardham anta..

--> Final ga enti ante...ilanti doubts rule out chesukotanike...ante whether the mother ahd developed GD in the later weeks of pregnancy ani doubt rule out cheyatanike..prathi hospital lo kuda baby puttina with in few hrs lopala they will do a sugar test for the baby anta..

Inko vishyam ...Indian food thintene GD vasthundhi ani em ledu prathyusha...manam entha care full thinna kuda GD vache chances unnayi..nenu aslau em chocolates kani sweets kani em thinaledu..i remember that i ate ice cream that too only thrice anukunta preg starting nundi..rice intake kuda chala thakkuve naadi..i use to eat pulkas...but naaku GD vachindhi ga mari.....so it depends on the body ra anthe..Food kastha care ful ga thinu..careful ga ante..ipudu kuda careful gaane thintunnavanukoo..but..inka careful ga undu..increase the intake of protein in each and every meal u take in a day

Question

Diabetes test was a disaster yesterday :((((((

Gals..ninna nenu 2nd glucose test ki vellanu...total 16 hrs fasting undalsi vachindhi...and test procedure madhya lo i threw up 3 times after drinking the glucose drink when they particularly asked me not to throw up...becos the results will not come accurate...

ipudu naa result ela vasthundho emo report ani chala tension ga undhi...

first time glucose test report was very high..140 below undalsindhi..5 levels ekkuvaga 191 undhi.. ipudu ela vasthundho result ani tension ga undhi konchem..if they ask me to come for the same procedure again..i cant go through it again..naaku em cheyalo ardam kavatledu.. any suggestions gals..

Contd..

Gals..meeku few weeks before cheppanu..that i had gone through the gestational Diabetes test and it went very disasterly bad but later the doc called told me that the results were fine ani..
So i was very happy since i got the call that the results were fine ...But sadly when i went for my regular appointment last week..the doc told that ..That Actually she was confused abt my test result and she doubts that i might have a risk of GD..and asked be to see a dietician immediately...
So yesterday i went to see a Dietician nurse and she gave me a Blood glucose monitor..and asked me to do the test my self for 4 times a day..
So ninna night nundi adi start chesanuu...and to my surprise...yesterday night i ate only 1 vegetable whole grain sand wich for dinner and my glucose level was at the border...of the normal range[just 1 veg sandwich]

and ipudu Morning fast test before break fast chesanu..and the result is high than normal range...and after bf [oats]was more more more more higher than the normal range..i simply just felt like crying at that moment when i saw the blood sugar level... chala minimum Quantity thinnanu..but still it showed veryyyyyy high..naaku aakali kuda theera ledu and iam feeling very nauseous..and feel so dizzy and tired..
this tuesday i have an apnt with the Actual Dietician(not the nurse)..So seeing my week results..she will suggest alternate food or might ask me take insulin every day..Just praying GOD that my baby should be fine as the doc told that my baby might get affected with my GD condition..Just relying on BABA right now

Answer

It is not advisable to manage test results by eating less.... or eating specific foods... meeru mamuluga tinali... forget about results .. just et normal and do the needful... if u really have GD , it needs to be treated rather than escaping it... u need to have a balanced diet... avoid sugary foods like chocolates , but roju tine chapati, doas, rice ilantivi manakandi... mamuluga tini , appudu sugar levels high unte , doc will surely treat it.. GD is very much treatable.. known affects of GD is usually a heavy baby... ante...

so trust the doc and God... you will be fine

But iam ready to adjust with this lil amt of food for my healthy baby...even iam ready to bear the nausea and dizzyness and tired ness ...But only thing which i feel tensed is..after eaitng all such calculated food..the bloog sugar levels shows high.. sadly

Answer

what was your fasting sugar? are you maintaining a log for your daily sugar levels? Maintain a log of what you are eating everytime even snacks and amount of water you are drinking.

Dont worry. It all depends on your fasting sugar. if your fasting sugar is between 70-95 then it means your body can tolerate excess sugar..if not you would need to take insulin during night time..so that fasting sugar levels are within range. Its very essential for you to not to panic at this moment. Any amount of stress will increase your sugar levels. Try to be happy and calm as much as possible..because you are doing this all hard work for your little one.

speak to your dietician and tell him/her about your diet preferences...some dieticians give american diet and some also prefer indian diet. My dietician gave me freedom to eat all kind of indian stuff..except for pappu annam.

i went through all that and now i have my son...ITS WORTH THE EFFORT!! Dont be afraid...trust me

Answer

Believe in God sorry i dont know ur name

you have to avoid eating carbs before the glucose test. Dosa is full of carbs only. Instead of that..eat protein rich food like a boiled egg..if u dont eat boiled egg..eat a single slice of multi grain bread with peanut butter.

I have GD so i know what i did wrong. Two weeks back before the test you should increase the protein content. and less carbs. Do not eat fruits first thing in the morning.

the 3 hr test is really horrible but many people pass it even when they have failed the 1 hr. so dont worry. even if you fail the test, do not worry at all...you can easily control it with proper diet. I have controlled mine with just diet

Nenu morning breakfast teesukoledhu...my ob/gyn dint want to have anything...Just vaalu ichina a pop taagesi vellanu...i usually go for the firt appt in the morning...so no perobs for me

Answer

what Visa said is exactly true. GTT results depends up on the icapability of producing insulin in our body. Most of them say that we are more likely to b affected if our grandparents had diabetes. I too didnt take anything b4 going to test..Iam on fasting for 6-8 hrs i guess. dont worry you parents will get thhe visa. Baba wl take ccare of you
