Is Spilling Ketones In The Morning Normal During A Pregnancy?
I am 35 weeks pregnant with Gestational diabetes. I am over weight and loosing weight due to a strick diet and excerise. I am on metformin and since my sugar levels are right in target and my blood pressure is perfect. However, I continue to spill moderate to large amounts of ketones in the morning, yet they turn negative by mid afternoon. Is that ok?

if you take my opinion then I would suggest you that spilling ketones should be taken seriously and you should go for a better glycemic control and good control of your blood sugar by correct diet and proper medications
