Gestational diabetes
Hi
I have been diagnosed with gestational diabetes in my 26th week. My fasting sugar is between 100-110, and post meal 1 hour it is less than 150 but 4-5 times in a week it increases to 195 but below 200 always. Doctor recommended Gluconorm 500 mg daily after breakfast and dinner
Is this safe in pregnancy or can I avoid this medication according to my sugars ?
Can someone pls guide me if this is safe to take in pregnancy?
It is safe.
But your blood sugar levels are fairly normal.

Medication is safe
The deranged sugar levels are unsafe and they can adversely affect the baby
