Ketones
I'm 34 weeks pregnant and have GD. I take my blood 6x/day and my dr asked me to start testing my urine with ketone strips. They have been normal, yesterday there was a trace amount and tonight there was a moderate amount. I will call my dr first thing tomorrow, but does anyone know what that means??

It generally means that you need to increase your carbohydrate intake.

Re: Ketones
Not drinking enough water. You typically get ketones when you are dehydrated. I've had them a lot this pregnancy and nurse always tell me I need to drink more.
