What’s some interesting things your MFM or diabetic specialists have said to you? Mine told me he’d rather me “run sweeter”

I met with the MFM doctor last week to discuss GD and overall plans for baby depending how things progress. He said he’d actually rather me run sweeter than not because 1. hypoglycemia is very dangerous for mom and baby 2. it still signals to him that the placenta is functioning because a spike indicates that the placenta is still at work/being stubborn.

I found this interesting and it helped me not sweat my post meal spikes as much realizing he’d rather me “spike occasionally”
