Gestational Diabetes

i been diagnosed with the GD when i am 24weeks pregnant.
already gone thru clean diet and cut all carb and sugary stuff, basically 80% of my meal prep at home. (currently 29 weeks pregnant)
my morning reading is between 5.7-5.9, the rest of the day (before or after meal all under good reading below 6.7.

Diabetes specialist benchmark on healthy sugar level :
fasting morning - <5.3
before meal - <6.7
2 hours after meal - <6.7

problem:
my doctor is prescribed me with oral medication (after dinner every day) to see if morning reading is controllable.
he even telling me that if the morning blood sugar cannot control under 5.3 (via oral medication), i need to take insulin injection.

anyone here facing this problem, is it necessary to take medication or injection?
my reading so far for a month maintaining in good level except morning, (maybe i sleep in hunger?)

i need help please.
Thank you
