Your dosage may need to be reviewed if you are frequently high. 4 units should not affect your pregnancy, but better to get assessed by your gp if you have doubts. 8-9 are not serious readings, but it would be better to aim below 7. It is sometimes difficult to stay within a preferred bracket due to influences such as stress, infections and high activity. I have periods of stability, then bounce out of the range in both directions. If I am fatigued or have a viral infection, the glucose levels jump dramatically, as high as 28, and as low as 2.1. But most of the time I am stable.Hi im 17 weeks pregnant and sometimes no matter what i eat i stay high. All day ive been between 8-9 i hav 4 units with meals. Im worried itll harm baby. Usually within target so is it ok as a one off.
9.1 before dinner now and hungry

Hey, ive been not to correct myself as ive only been on it 2weeks and during that have had hypos too. I stick to 15g or less for breakfast otherwise i struggle to be i the target. Its all new to me really but i will change my pen and see if that helps. I havent been carb counting as such but did to vring my hba1c down when first diagnosed (pre-pregnancy)Are you carb counting? If you're on set doses for meals, you'll need to carb count and eat the 'right' amount of carbs for your 4 units.
If this has only started happening today, I'd change to fresh insulin in case it's become less effective.
Have you done any correction doses?
I have felt a little stressed today and i didnt know this affected us but it helps to know that short term readings of 8/9 arent bad in the long run mostly im wiyhin target, just hope i dont have more days like this. Will ask to have my dose upped a little.
