I'm 37 weeks pregnant... and a couple of weeks ago, failed my glucose screening. I had taken the same screening at around 18 weeks and passed it then, but have seemed to develop it now. I'm going to be induced in 9 days... but am stir crazy about what to eat. I've been monitoring my blood sugar for the past 2 weeks... and for the most part have maintained it under 120. I've had a few readings between 125 - 169, and am trying to maintain a better diet. Considering it's so late in the pregnancy, I've tried to adjust my diet without having to see a nutritionist. My endocronologist seems to think I'm doing okay on my own... but I'm craving food all the time. I've never in my life had to watch what I eat... and these last 9 days before giving birth feel like a life sentence. I'm sick of eating carrot sticks and celery. Anyone have a similar experience and what foods were satisfying for you without setting bells off?
