You can try diet control
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
Thanks for writing..
I understand your concern..
As per the reports provided only 1 value of GTT is high,that is the second value. Other wise the rest of value is normal.The repeat FBS and PPBS are within the normal range..
She is prone to have diabetes in future. Right now she needs to have good diet control. Avoid sweets. Increase the vegetables in the food. Intake of carbohydrate rich diet should be reduced. Intake of chappathi is preffered to rice. Avoid starvation. Avoid oily and fried food.
Repeat FBS and PPBS weekly till delivery. FBS should be less than 110, PPBS less than 140. If there is uncontolled sugar levels, she may require insulin..
Is this her first pregnancy? Is there any history of stillbirth or abortions?
Get a scan done to see for fetal growth, estimated fetal weight and blood flow to the fetus. If estimated fetal weight is less than 3.5 kg with adequate liquor and good blood flow, normal delivery can be tried.. If you have a recently done scan report, kindly send it.
Keep a check on baby movements..
Hope I have answered your query. Feel free to ask any doubts.. Good day..

The previous scan is normal

By this scan the growth is corresponding.. There is a mild pelviectasis of one kidney which needs a follow up to see whether the size is increasing..
Get a repeat scan by 1 week to see for fetal growth, weight and degree of pelviectasis. If everything is normal, you can try for a normal delivery with close monitoring..
