Hello! I am Ogamari.
I realized that a little over a year has passed since I found out I was pregnant with my daughter. It seems like a long time ago now...
I have many memories of my pregnancy, but the most memorable one is that I had gestational diabetes!
In this issue, I would like to introduce an application that has been a great help to me during my gestational diabetes.
What is "gestational diabetes" anyway?
Gestational diabetes mellitus is a disease in which blood glucose levels are not well controlled during pregnancy, leading to abnormal glucose metabolism. It seems that 12% of pregnant women are affected by this disease, and it is not that rare. However, I was shocked when it was discovered, and above all, measuring my own blood glucose every day was painful, troublesome, and difficult....
Visualize "calories" and "carbohydrates."
If blood sugar levels remain high during pregnancy, the risk of various complications increases. If I took sugar, my blood sugar would spike, but I also had to take in calories for the sake of my baby... It was a situation of "if you can't stand up for yourself, you can't stand up for us," so I was really careful about what I ate.
That's where it helped.ASCII data transfer with XON-XOFF flow controlIt was an app called I had originally used it for dieting purposes, but it was an excellent and easy way to calculate sugar and calories, and it helped me a lot during my pregnancy.
Thus, simply enter the amount of food you eat to determine calories and carbohydrates!
I could see how much I had consumed against my daily goal, so I was able to adjust my diet accordingly. After childbirth, I continue to use it for weight loss!
This June, "Asuken" released a new course called "Asumama Course" for the pregnancy and lactation period! Asumama Course" was released in June this year,BabyTech® Awards 2022 It is also entered in the
I gave birth in May so I haven't actually used it, but if you are currently pregnant or nursing, why not use it?
Baby Weight Management
We were also careful to manage the baby's weight, as we were told that when a woman has gestational diabetes, her baby tends to be larger than average.
The baby's weight, which was measured at the checkup, wasMaternal and child moI used the "fetal development curve" function of an app called "Fetal Development Curve" to keep track.
I knew the correct weight based on the number of weeks, so I checked each time to make sure I was within the normal range.
By the way, the birth weight was about 2,900 grams. I was relieved that it was not affected!
We are also continuing to use "Maternal and Child Mo" as it has many features that can be used after birth.
Exercise anyway! Walking!
Exercise was effective for me in lowering my blood sugar. I always went for a walk after eating.
Is there any app that would make the walk more enjoyable? I looked for an "trimmerI found "Poikatsu", an application that allows you to earn points just by moving around! This is a "poikatsu" application that allows you to earn points just by moving around. The points can be exchanged for cash, points, product vouchers, etc. I walked a lot during my pregnancy, so I was able to accumulate points quickly. I think many people are told by their doctor to walk when they reach the last trimester of pregnancy. If you are going to go to the trouble of walking, it would be nice if you can use the time to save money!
These are the apps that helped me during my gestational diabetes!
Not only gestational diabetes, but there are many other points to keep in mind during pregnancy, such as calorie restriction and lack of exercise. With the help of technology, you can enjoy a vibrant maternity life!
Child of the Week.
We moved! I guess I couldn't get used to the new room, the first day was the biggest cry of all time... I will introduce the use of baby tech in the new room in the future!
