Hi ladies. I had to inject insulin during my 35 wks checkup . Gynea says sugar control have nt been vy good . So ned to inject insulin till birth. Quite worry it might affect bb n myself after birth. Any one have same exp? Care to share
Hi, don't worry! I had GD in week 32. My monitor chart also not good, so doctor prescribed insulin for me to inject 3 times per day. Starting I only need 8 units of insulin, but my diet couldn't control well, so doctor kept increase the units till 40 units per day.
I injected my tummy before meals, got blue black leh. But everything was fine. I delivered my healthy baby last month, me no need any insulin and blood sugar back to normal already. Baby after birth also need to do some blood test to make sure the blood sugar is normal. Thank God, my baby is very healthy and no problem with high/low blood sugar.
Insulin is safe for us and baby. Don't worry. Insulin is the same as our body produces, not chemical.
If our blood sugar too high, Without insulin, baby will be more dangerous.
Just follow your gynae's suggestion, that's the best for you and your baby.
