    My oldest son is in his early 20's and he has type 1 diabetes. But thank God for this piece of article youtube.com/post/UgkxVYhghKWmrUgXARZ_ydZTvmmcrw5L0… At first he thought he had the flu and was lying down on the bed for three days until his sister took him to the hospital. They took his blood and it was 600. What I do not understand is how he could have gotten it, since no one in the family has it. But he is winning the battle now. This is good stuff.
  • God bless you. I am following all ur videos. You have been a blessing to all my problems in pregnancy.

    This is so clear and concise Jess! And good on you for reminding women that it's ok and not their fault!
  • @May-mp9vw
    Thankyou very helpful and explained really well.

    Just diagnosed last week & so frustrated because I eat much healthier now than I did in my first pregnancy & I didn't get gestational diabetes in my first pregnancy.
  • This 20 minute video was more helpful than any of the drs I have talked to. They are a group that was recommending 175 grams of carbs at 13 weeks pregnant and going up from there. I don't do that it made me feel sick. I feel best if half my plate is vegetables. Reading lily's book has helped a lot, but also knowing that there are other physician/dieticians that don't subscribe to high carb during pregnancy is helpful.
  • The only thing that has mostly worked for me to get my fasting sugar levels to 5.0 mmol or below (think it’s 90 for US/UK) has been at least 30 mins of cardio after dinner. I tried different types of snacks (Greek yogurt, nuts, PB and whole grain bread, cheese) but they never worked consistently. Hope it helps everyone and good luck it’s tough but we can get through it!!!
  • Do you think it's important to always have a bedtime snack?? I've tried a few no carb snacks and at times didn't work so just wondering what you recommend? I really wanna get below 5.2 x
  • Managing my fasting glucose has been very challenging. Limit in Australia is 5.0 mmol. Not having snack after dinner and doing one of your pregnancy HIIT classes before bed was working. But no longer at 35 weeks. Now trialling the 1 serving of low GI carbs before bed. Whilst it has brought it down, I am still 0.1 and 0.2 over. Thanks for reassuring me not to beat myself up about it and making me feel more comfortable with the prospect of insulin should the doctor go that way.

    This was so helpful! I have been living a real-life nightmare with these doctors and trying to get my diabetes under control. I did have a question you mentioned in the video you don't want to have low sugars but didn't explain why. But also how to combat the low dips and then high rises in the middle of the night. This is what is happening to me and I have lowered my insulin intake and even skipped dosage and it still drops dangerously low (40s).
  • @ethandsouza476
    I try to skip my carbs at dinner and have a protein rich dinner post which my blucon shows perfect morning fasting sugars.

    I am on 35 weeks and my OB-GYN predicted GD in my first trimester because I have had PCOS for 12 years, which increases insulin resistance. My blood sugar level spiked too high after meal, it could not be controlled with oral hypoglycemi and finally had to switch to Insulin, even then my endocrinologist had to increase the insulin dose last week. I kept researching for low GI foods, ended up decreasing carbs and replacing it with healthy proteins and fats (lentil soup and cheese worked wonders). I am praying that my baby does not have any complications due to my GD.
  • @smritizalpuri
    It would be so helpful if instead of talking lecture style you could also do some bullet points highlighting main points to remember. I am such a visual learner that it is just an overload of information for me. Thank you so much. I am only struggling with elevated fasting sugar but never more than 109.

    Hey! Are chia seeds taking in empty stomach are safe during pregnancy or for gastational diabetes?
