Sugar level during pregnancy

2024-01-20 18:26:36
My wife is seven weeks pregnant and we have done the sugar level check today. The fasting sugar is 105 & PP 119. Also, HBA1C is 6.1. Is it sign of worry or should we take medicine to reduce the sugar level?

The right value for fasting sugar in pregnancy is less than 92 mg/dl. It is advised that you start medical nutrition therapy to keep sugars under check, take a walk after each meal and also walk for 30 mins each in the morning and evening. Please monitor fasting and post lunch for two weeks and if this hasn’t helped then you will need medication.
