Feeling defeated
No matter what I do my numbers are higher than my doctor wants. Baby boy is measuring 3 weeks ahead and has extra fluid around him. I’m up to 50 units of insulin in the morning and 60 units at night but I still can’t get my fasting under 80 or after meals under 110. Doctor has mentioned inducing at 38 weeks currently 33 weeks. I’m just so frustrated and fed up with feeling like I’m failing baby boy before he’s even here

Your treshholds are low. My fasting was below 95 And after meals 120. I wasn’t on insulin just diet controlled. I limited carbs and made sure to eat some protein. Fruit with peanut butter helped keep my fasting numbers low. I never had a fasting number below 80. Sorry I can’t offer tips. 😞
Oh and you most certainly are not failing him!!

Cut carbs and go on walks after every meal (even if just round the house). Look into myo-inositol also, it's natural and really helps with bringing sugars down.
