I think Madam, it is best for you to restrict your sweet cravings for sometime, at least till you deliver. Since I cannot make sure of your metabolic status both during and after pregnancy, I think it is best to be in the healthiest of lifestyle. Because if gestational diabetes develops, it will definitely put your kid to a wide range of risk factors.

Aş your fasting is at slightly higher of the normal range you need to control your sugar intake. It is going to make a big baby & related complications. So cut down your sugar & enjoy fresh fruits.
