Dear madam I can understand your concern
in my opinion your blood glucose levels are not very bad.
taking wosulin is not a great option instead you can try taking inj Levimer which is approved to take in pregnancy and works for 24 hours. wosulin will work only for 12 hrs and you need to take it Twice
I suggest you to follow good diet and do daily walking for 30 min
this will help you better
kindly monitor your sugars on home and prepare a chart
relax don't worry every thing will be alright
