Can you physically feel when your sugar is high?

Question

I need to know I’m not going crazy lol I had gestational diabetes last pregnancy and I just failed my 1 hour this pregnancy with a 152. I’m assuming I have it again but I started noticing for a while foods with high carbs/sugars gives me a horrible heartburn feeling. I stuck to my meal plan I used last pregnancy yesterday and I felt fine. As an experiment, I just had a half of a plain bagel  and again I felt that horrible feeling. Just wanted to know if you other mamas noticed or not 🤷🏾‍♀️

Answer

Extremely groggy, like can’t drag myself out of bed and falling asleep at work groggy. Extremely thirsty. Drink a liter and it doesn’t quench anything. Peeing all the time, perhaps because of all the water. It’s a horrible feeling.

Answer

No only when its low

Answer

I am new to GD with this pregnancy, dx at 28 weeks. After doing this for a couple of weeks I do notice when my sugar is high. 
I feel very ‘fuzzy’ headed and can’t concentrate. A little bit of blurry vision. Just an overall weird feeling. Kind of like a tired or sleepy feeling.

Answer

headaches, trouble concentrating, blurred vision, frequent peeing (which I know when you are pregnant, can be bothersome, but with high BG, it's tenfold), fatigue, weight loss, blood sugar reading of 180 or higher.

Answer

I had GD with my 1st child 17 yrs ago. When she was 11 mo old, I developed T1D (something the Dr neglected to tell us could happen) I have gone on to have 3 more pregnancies with T1D. Over the years I have noticed many symptoms of both high and low BG levels and I can now tell if I have a high/low just by how I feel and the symptoms I'm having. Let me just say that every individual is different, so it's hard to say what symptoms may stand out for you or what foods you should learn to stay away from because of how your body processes them. Some symptoms if high BG  are increased thirt  (not your normal, I'm thirsty and it's been a while since I've had something to drink, but a I can't get enough to drink always thirsty, my mouth is extremely dry, cotton feeling),

Answer

Woozy and dizzy. Like I might faint. Spinning head. It’s a sign I got to get up and walk. I also had major heartburn and it seemed unrelated to sugars. Try Zantac, tums are sh**

Answer

I feel like someone is sitting on my chest.  Its tight and uncomfortable.  I also get super sleepy and thirsty.

Answer

I can't notice. This is my very first time having it. Maybe because it never even gone super high maybe ? I can tell tho when it's on the lower side ...
