[QUOTE="Zaza83, post: 1911364, member: 493628"] Hi, It's me again. I have had an apointment with my midwife and she said she won't test early GD, same as my GP. I showed her my numbers for 5 days. Here are some of the numbers from the last couple of days below: 6.1 - morning fasting 4.9 - before lunch 5.2 and 5.7 - two hours after lunch 4.8 and 5.1 - before dinner 6.7 - one hour after dinner DAY 2 5.2 and 5.4 - morning reading 5.7 - one hour after breakfast 4.9 - before lunch 6.9 - 7.1 - one hour after lunch 4.8 - 2 hours after lunch 5.8 - before dinner (had some snacks in between lunch and dinner) 5.4 and 5.9 - one hour after dinner She didn't look through them properly, just a cursory look. Do those numbers look problematic? My fasting finger prick has been 6.1 once, I hadn't slept much at all and have been worried. * Can lack of sleep affect blood sugar levels? * If I wait for GTT test and in the mean time adopt a low carb diet for the next few weeks, will it be an accurate test if I have been low carb for a few weeks?
