Other than cut down on sugar and carbo, did the doc ask u to do anything else???

What will happen if you really kenna GD, what is the additional "things" you need to do to manage the condition. Anyone knows?

walk at least 30mins after each meal.

no noodle or rice... eat kuay teow SOUP　is the best
eat lots of fibre coz it will slow down the rate sugar "attack" ur blood ....

no plain bread, wholemeal bread only

these help to manage the condition... unless very jialat then have to go on very very strict diet....

in the end i got 2 tubs , 1 tub of Triple Paste and 1 tub of Aquaphor.

The former has Zinc Oxide but not the latter. Apparently what can be done when bb has a bad bout of diaper rash is to mix the 2, and add mylanta (if mylanta works, presumably then the cheap milk of magnesia from the polyclinc shld work) .

I think if borderline, they will suggest u to see dietician etc and learn how to control your diet.
i know someone who is in her 32 weeks, kena diagnose with GD, so gynae told her to buy that blood test home kit, monitor her sugar level at home and eat a diabetic diet. If by the next checkup, her sugar level still high, she'll need to jab insulin

its a torture to take the blood test home and test.

coz u have to eat at the exact timing they plan for u, and prick ur fingers at the timing they tell u to do so....

and if dun walk = sugar high abit then its depressing to see the result and will worry un necessarily end up add stress to urself and baby...


so what we can do now is walk walk walk after each meal, cannot sit down.... these will help.

yes be glad u no need do pricking test everyday... i cried when i need to do the pricking test.. coz by the end of the day my fingers are all bruised... poke where also pain...
thats why i so scared of GD test now... scared i fail and i will have to prick again and be on strict diet, follow their timing.... but then that time when i kenna i was under subsidized KKH , so attitude by nurses wasnt very good also, thats why i felt very stress if i fail any of the test on pricking day

if kenna pricking test, for a start they might wan u to prick everyday 7 times a day for 1 whole week.
and after they review ur results, they cut down to twice or thrice a week until u give birth

and on the delivery bed, they will come and prick u once in a while...


dun think too much, increase ur fibre intake and walk around after each meal, these should solve ur problem since u are only borderline and ask to cut down only.

deardyan said:
anyway, just wanna ask if you ladies experience these as well.. i'm not sure if it's because our uterus is moving upwards already but since yesterday i feel like baby is no longer resting low so now my lower part of tummy feels empty, almost flabby and then the top part will feel hard. This always happen in the morning.

Then as the day progress, i feel the top part cushiony as usual and the lower part of my tummy hardens. i'm 27 weeks today.
Feels so weird sometimes when i feel the lower part of my tummy become flabby.

For me..I don't feel flabby leh. In fact, my whole tummy always feels super hard..regardless of time of day..
