27+5 and numbers awful today?
This is my second GD pregnancy so I’m familiar with being in the timeframe where the placenta really starts taking effect. But this seems so sudden…
My first pregnancy was on insulin for my fasting # only and meals diet controlled.
This pregnancy I was diagnosed first trimester. A1C normal. Fasting has been insulin controlled. Meals diet controlled.
I was starting to see some meals increase (slightly but noticeable) the last 2 weeks so my endo gave me fast acting insulin to use for meals I “know” will spike me. Used my first meal time dose yesterday for dinner. Number was great at 105.
Woke up today and my fasting was 100 (every other day was ranging 82-95). Breakfast 105 after 2 hours (I’ve NEVER had a breakfast higher than 97). Lunch was a salad with avocado and chicken on it and my number was 127 after 2 hours!!! Any other day I ate that same exact salad my number was in the 90s or 100 tops.
Is this normal??? My only change was the insulin dose at dinner last night.
If it’s not my insulin dose then My fear is I’m getting sick and don’t know it yet or the placenta has completely taken over and I’ll be eating plain lettuce for the next 12 weeks
