hi madam I can understand your concern.
the medicatin what you are using is called metformin which is a very good medication and safe In pregnancy.
regularly do exersise and follow diet plan also .
most of patients will be stabilized with this medications but In some cases there will be need of insulin also.
monitor your sugars and prepare a chart with all your sugar values .
this kind of information will help your doctor to decide up on your medication in a better way.
