Gestational diabetes is a special type of diabetes. If well controlled, most pregnant women's blood sugar will automatically return to normal after the baby is born. Doctors generally don't use drugs to intervene during pregnancy unless the condition is very serious. As long as you adjust your diet, control the intake of sugary foods, and control the blood sugar level in your body within the normal range, it will basically have no adverse effects on you and your baby.

Eat more high-fiber food.

Pregnant women with gestational diabetes should eat more high-fiber foods (such as fresh fruits and vegetables), whole wheat bread, cereals and beans. These foods are digested and absorbed more slowly than ordinary carbohydrates, which may help you keep your blood sugar from rising too high after meals.

Low glycemic index food

When choosing a certain food, you can refer to the glycemic index of food and eat more foods with low glycemic index. Different foods have different glycemic indexes. Eating foods with low glycemic index can not only get the same nutrition, but also help to control blood sugar.

Dietary fiber in vegetables

Vegetables such as konjac, celery, bamboo shoots, mushrooms, fungus and various fungi are rich in dietary fiber.
