Hi akrutisyd

I am from Kerala but now in US.
Hope ur doing good

 

Hi mom2nov

My doctor told me my weight gain is faster in my 3rd month and it made me very upset. Bcos I knew how little I ate in my first trimester and being in US I had to cook everything on my own too.
After that I started walking daily two times( upto 2 miles a day in total) and luckily after that my OB says my rate of weight gain is normal . Hope it continues

 

Hi ladies
Anybody currently in US? Can I get some pointers on how to clear 1 hour glucose test??

 

Hi Indeevara,
Am doing good, hope you are all well. Wondering if you have taken glucose test earlier?

 

Hi gals, i have swollen legs, i know this is common but anyways of reducing it? My doctor said that i need to increase my protein consumption. I've added more protein in my food, and only once rice. But still no change. Feels bit heavy to walk. Any natural ways?

 

No I haven't taken before

 

What do you mean by clearing? Tips on getting low numbers in blood test?

 

I hope she means getting normal figures.
@Indeevara your blood samples will be taken on hourly basis by initially giving you glucose syrup. Mostly indians numbers are on high end unless they follow a strict - low carb diet. Its just to make sure that you are free from diabetes. Just make sure your diet has lots of fibrous food with protein, they will anyway revise your diet plan based on the results.

 

Yes I meant getting normal figures so that I don't have to take the three hour test.
Thanks @akrutisyd !
