Question
Hi mamas! I found out yesterday that I have GD and was given my kit today, however im new to all of this and don’t understand it much.
Does anyone have a list of what the ‘normal’ numbers should be or where I could find this?
I’ve just done my first reading after lunch and want to know what numbers to look out for.

It really is, it’s all so confusing. So I had for my first ever reading an hour after lunch, 4.9 im guessing that’s good? X @Courtney @Carrie
Yeah anything below 7.8 is good 😊 x
Yeah that is a good reading, it may be that you’ll be able to increase the amount of what you had too. Some people get high fasting readings and a snack before bed can help lower it.
Have you been told to download the gd-m health app? As that also shows you if the reading is in range or not x
@Courtney yes I have but I haven’t yet had a chance to look at it x
@Dominique perfect, thank you! X
@Carrie okay. That’s good to know x

It is daunting when first get diagnosed to get your head around it all. And it’s all a bit of a trial and error with foods on how they affect you as everyone is different and have different triggers. The numbers you’ve put in the picture are the same as I got given, and shouldn’t be below 4. Feel free to message x
