question re: Hypoglycemia
Anyone here hypoglycemic during pregnancy?
I got my glucose tolerance results back, and apparently instead of being high like i thought (since i had GD with my DS) I was the LOWEST blood sugar theyd ever seen lol, figures...
anyone experience this during pregnancy? what do i do differently now? I havent spoken to the dr yet, just the nurse

Re: question re: Hypoglycemia
I had reactive hypoglycemia during pregnancy. When I ate carbs or something sugary, my blood sugar would drop shortly thereafter and I would get very dizzy, my heart would beat really fast and feel very faint. I tried to eat more protein and less carbs/sugar which helped a little. I remember OJ in the morning being the worst. It started around 20 weeks and lasted until I gave birth. I had it with both pregnancies. I'm not sure if it's the same as just regular hypoglycemia though since it wasn't something that came up on the standard blood sugar tests.
