Hello, Congratulations on your pregnancy! I do hope you will Be able to control your sugar with diet only. Unfortunately, the sugar tends to go up during the pregnancy and the goal for the blood sugar is less than 95 fasting and less than 120 2hrs after a meal. You should continue to monitor your sugar and follow closely with your doctor, to decrease the risks associated with high blood sugar during the pregnancy.
