Glucose test
Going to try and make this short and sweet! I’m 13 weeks today and just started thinking about when the glucose test time arrives what will I do..
Background: This is my third pregnancy, first daughter(11) I had when I was 18 + healthy not overweight. Among the years I gained weight and was my heaviest when I got pregnant with my second daughter (2) when she was around 6 months old I went on the keto diet and exercised and lost 100lbs! I did ween myself off of the keto diet because I was trying to conceive and just didn’t love the studies on a full strict keto while pregnant.. anyways I still watch my sugar intake and I don’t eat like crap but I do indulge if I’m craving something sweet and I’m eating healthy carbs and what not. I did the glucose test with both of my daughters but for some reason I’m not wanting to do it with this pregnancy..
Have any of you just tracked your blood sugars instead and how was your doctors office about it? It’s more accurate so I wouldn’t see why any practice would have something negative to say about it lol. Just looking for experiences others may have had with doing blood sugar readings over the glucose.
TYIA!
