Dear All,
My wife has been diagnosed with gestational diabetes and she is in 35 weeks of pregnancy.
She is on insulin being given 4 times a day with dosage of 4-4-4-6 mg. She is on strict diet and does brisk walking after food.
Doctors have advised to have the range for fasting 70-90 and after food 110-130.
Her current numbers are 91 in fasting and 145ish after food
My questions are following
Best Regards,
Saurav

Her current numbers are 91 in fasting and 145ish after food
My questions are following
- Is the range given above is fine for gestational diabetes ?
- Should she continue this dosage of insulin ? Will there be any side affect of insulin ?
- Can she eat oranges of kinnow hybrid https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kinnow ? Does she need to eat oranges with or without juice ?
- Any other comments you have on our current situtation and diagnosis ?
Best Regards,
Saurav
