So far, my readings are quite low:
6.2 = after almost 1 hour from dinner. (I just tested even if it's not yet 2 hours just to try my new kit)
Dinner: 5T rice, 2 small pieces of breaded pork chop, mixed veggies, a slice of fish, 3 slices of cucumber, 2T lemon with 1T honey, half apple
4.2 = Before breakfast
4.9 = 2 hours after breakfast.
Breakfast: Freshmilk with 1 teaspoon of Milo (not heaping), 4T rice, corned beef, scrambled egg
Is it okay if it's a little below the normal range? If the readings continue to be within the normal range, is it possible that I have no GDM? My HbA1c was normal - the average daily sugar for 3 months and fasting blood sugar was normal. But after drinking the orange drink, it was 8.9. But 2 hours after breakfast, my reading was only 4.9.
How to draw more blood when you prick? I'm using Accuchek Active and I've already set to 3, but still, I can't get enough blood most of the time even if I squeeze.
Your readings look ok, but do bear in mind that glucose meter does subject to certain level of error. Lab test is always the most accurate. Even if your reading continue to be normal doesn't mean that you have no GDM, it only means your diet is effective to keep your blood sugar level at a normal level. For most of people had GDM, their 3mth fasting and HbA1c were normal.
