I only pricked 6 times daily. Before breakfast, 1 or 2 hours after i start eating breakfast (not finish wif breakfast), same goes for lunch n dinner. I used to drink low fat milk n eat blueberries.. or eat apple etc. now i take steel cut overnight oats. I did not recover from gdm and gynae had suspected i m diabetic in my first preg. So my 2nd pregnancy i was liaising wif my endocrine n getting her advice once i knew i was pregnant. However my readings r okay so far and she told me to take a break frm my readings if i am eating almost the same tings every day. She doesnt want me to keep pricking so many times until i deliver coz i am only at wk 15 now.
Hello. You need to do one 5mins before you eat your meal. Then there is a section on the paper to write what time u eat your meal, from that time u count 2 hours later and prick again. I did mine 7x a day, twice a week. Still bad, so now I’m on meds for GDM. 🥲
Yes I note down what I ate because the gynae will ask what is it I ate during the Time the sugar level spike up.
