Keytones in urine, anyone else?

Lauren • 8/17/19 💙 3/22/21💕

Just had my 34 week appointment, currently 34w 1d due 3/30 so I’m way behind all you other mamas lol so hoping someone else can relate to this. I was told I have keytones in my urine. They asked what I had eaten today and I said:

Breakfast: 3 scrambled eggs with shredded mozzarella cheese and a cup of coffee

Lunch: pb&j and a banana

They told me I need to eat more lol and drink more water. I’ve already had well over 100oz of water today so that can’t be it, right? I feel like I eat a lot lol I’m 5ft 2in and started pregnancy at 145lbs. I’m now 189lbs!! I eat normally and am gaining weight 😫

My appointment was at 2pm and baby’s heartbeat was 138 on the Doppler. Which I know is perfectly normal. My sons heartbeat was always in the 150s. Crazy how ever pregnancy is different! My blood pressure was 130/80 which they told me is also okay. I’m normally 120/70 so just a little off.

Anyone else been through a similar situation?

I should have asked while there but didn’t think of it. Aren’t keytones related to ketosis? Like the Keto diet that’s high in protein low in carbs? Lol

Are ketones the same at protein? Because I know protein in your urine isn’t good. I’m sure they would have told me if it was something to worry about. I just never think to ask these things until I leave 🤦🏻‍♀️

I was basically just told to eat more snacks between meals and keep drinking lots of water and they’ll see me in 2 weeks for my growth scan at 36 weeks lol so I’m not necessarily worried just hoping someone on here has had a similar situation.

Thanks in advance mamas! 🥰
