If not glyburide, what other medicine would you recommend for GD? Thank you
In your opinion is it safer/healthier to have an occasional fasting glucose of 95 (upper threshold) or to use insulin at night so that it never reaches 95.
This is great advice, thank you.

Question. When you say to calculate your BMI, are you saying to use our current weight? For instance, I'm 8 months pregnant and weigh 184 lbs. Or do we use our weight before we got pregnant? I think we use current weight but I think it's better to ask
Hello! I'm having trouble understanding the use of metformin while pregnant. There seems to be no consensus across the web with regards to its use during pregnancy for gestational diabetes. Some doctors are okay with it up to the 14th week is gestation, others don't want you on it at all, and others say it's okay until delivery. For example, I'm in a country where, sadly, getting the 3hr oral glucose test is very difficult. I have an a1c of 5.7 the doctors here want me on metformin to the end of gestation at 1500mg per day and a strict diabetic diet. All this without seeing a record of my daily meter tests. I put myself on 500 mg to start and tracked my daily numbers and noticed they weren't in a good range so I upped my met to 1000mg per day and now I see my numbers better after waking and still need small improvement after eating. I watch my carbs, choosing complex over simple, and use sugar subs. My lowest being 89 after waking and highest 148 after eating homemade lentil crust pizza (4 slices). It's difficult to know if this is manageable thru diet only or if metformin is actually needed. Could you possibly offer an insight to this issue? Then you doctor! (At time of writing this 11 weeks pregnant)
Great vedio on GD. Thank you. If blood glucose is less than 140 at one hour and also less than 120 at two hours but 170 at 1.5 hour, is this problem?. With CGM we can see that sometime you have pick between one hour and two hours. But most Dr. Just consider 1 hour and 2 hour but is not that bad to have high number in between?
Why don’t most doctors check in a1c instead of making us drink that nasty drink?
