i was diagnosed with GDM at 24 weeks.was advised by my OB to see endocrinologist.nirecommend na mag insulin ako.ang diet ko no simple carbohydrates like white bread,pasta,white rice,no crackers.And more on complex carbo po ako like sweet potato wheat bread pero small portion lng po lagi.More on vegetables din po ako which includes ampalaya,okra,dahon ng camote and malunggay.Black rice po ang rice ko.my 1 cup of cook black rice 3 days ko na po yun.Now at 33 weeks naging normal na po ang aking sugar.from 11.87 to 3.97 na lng po.my endocrinologist advice me to continue my insulin pa rin hanggang manganak ako.and will see him 6 weeks after i deliver my baby.I do walking also everyday morning and late afternoon for 30 minutes need po pagpawisan it helps burning the blood sugar.Its a sacrifice pero need natin gawin to get rid of further complications sa delivery ni baby.
