How often can we take sweet stuff??

Worried for GD but also sweet things tend to make me less dizzy and also cravings 🥹 if it’s every few days e.g having cake is it fine? #firsttimemom thanks!:)

I see! Aww.. That’s like one of my good friends friend too😆

i didnt like sweet stuff before pregnancy but i'm in my third trimester now and i need everything sweet 🥺 can't help it anymore. i don't have gd, thank goodness but i still think you should stick to moderation 😁

I keep craving sweet stuff too! That’s great for you:)

I checked my blood sugar every weekend, just to be sure that I was alright. I reduced sweet drinks but had cakes one awhile. I didn’t want to add too much weight 🤣

How do you check your blood sugar? :)

Eat in moderation. If ur family dun have history the risk of having is not as high. But u can also try to take ur blood sugar if u have the machine

The chances are lower but i tink still in moderation better.

I also take sweet drinks everyday and eat cake only once in a while. Praying hard i wont get GD too 😅

How far along are you?? I’m still week 7 so hopefully the cravings are less as the pregnancy progresses 😂
