[QUOTE="Becky78, post: 665507, member: 136440"] Here in Sweden the recommendation is 7.8, 1-1.5h after the finished meal. So I wouldnt worry at all about that 9 value. If you are unsure, measure 1h and 2h after each meal for a while and keep a detailed diary of what you are eating. You'll notice then that you react a bit over the top to some carbs, but not to other. If your glucose levels havent started to go down at the 2h measurements, then you need to take a really good look at the contents of that last meal. This will help you plan your meals better during the rest of the pregnancy. Sandwiches containing loads of carbs that are processed all to hell and have no nutritional value whatsoever are usually not that good for the blood sugar. Save your carb 'quota' for veggies, tubers and fruit instead. ;) [/QUOTE]
