Hello.Welcome to HCM forum.You are a potentially diabetic person and looks like heading towards gestational diabetes because of two reasons.1st....you are a known case of PCOD. 2nd ....you are having reading of 144 after 2 hrs of glucose which suggests impaired glucose tolerance( IGT )and that too in 2nd month of pregnancy.Normally gestational diabetes sets in 3rd trimester of pregnancy because of severe insulin resistance present during that time.Try to keep a control on your sugar.If diabetes sets in third trimester,control with insulin.Normally gestational diabetes becomes normal after delivery but in 8 to 10% cases it develops into full blown diabetes in next 5 to 10 years.continue your pregnancy with care.Real challenge comes after delivery when you should become very careful about your diet,exercises and weight.Any laxity will result in diabetes.Take care to keep checking your sugar levels every 6 months.Thanks and good luck.

Hi welcome to HealthcareMagic
The above report of fasting blood glucose level is under control, only mild elevation of the postprandial glucose .... yes you can continue the pregnancy, there will not be much complication to the developing fetus due to glucose level... try to maintain the sugar level under control.... High sugar level will lead to polyhydraminos
(excess amniotic fluid), Big baby, congenital defects....
