[QUOTE="Zaza83, post: 1912147, member: 493628"] GP and midwife both said 5.9 was not a fasting blood glucose and therefore they will wait til 24 weeks. And I said I have been testing at home and they dismissed my readings. I have started eating carbs today and definitely getting higher readings. I don't have any risk factors for GD and I nver had it in my previous pregnancies. I don't know why this is happening now? I have put on more weight than orevious pregnancies and have been really inactive than I usually am because I have had a prettt bad 1st trimester. I might book a provate GTT so i can get it over with and actually stick to a low carb diet as I definitrly think I have GD based on my after meal readings with carbs. [/QUOTE]
