Having symptoms of dizzyness/lightheadedness like I'm going to pass out which lasts most of the morning and worse after I eat breakfast. I'm thinking its a blood sugar issue so MW has suggested maybe I do the GTT considering I've never done one with previous pregnancies to see how my body is processing sugars. As I've never really looked into it with much depth I'm unsure what this would mean if It showed I had GD especially regarding homebirth...any enlightenment or your thoughts appreciated. I dont see MW until next week for our appointment so obviously I'll discuss with her also but want to prepare myself. I'm 23 weeks.
I was like this in the first trimester - my problem was I wasn't eating enough carbs. How's your carb intake? Once I upped it and was aware of it, I was fine. I thought mine was a blood glucose problem as well (because my levels can be a bit low sometimes) but for me it was a carb thing.
