Waalaikumsalam sis! Alhamdulillah ada soalan ni, GDM memang keliru kat awal-awal tapi you're doing great with the water and fruits already, apple hijau and jambu batu memang bagus pilihan. Regarding the basmathi rice, honestly boleh ja but the key is portion control and pair it with protein plus veggies, sebab nasi is nasi juga at the end of the day, whether basmathi or regular; few of my mum friends with GDM cakap they focused more on eating slower and smaller helpings rather than switching jenis beras. The worry you have is totally normal, tapi doctor sudah guide you so trust the process and maybe ask her specifically about portion sizes for basmathi versus regular nasi, atau if she prefers you try brown rice or mixed grains. Keep monitoring your glucose levels as advised and be patient with yourself, GDM can be managed well, and you're already on the right track!
Wa'alaikumassalam sis! I understand the worry, GDM memang stress jugak. Honestly basmati rice is slightly better than regular white rice sebab lower glycemic index, tapi patutnye doctor suruh you check portion control lebih penting dari jenis rice je; I did the same thing and realised even basmati boleh spike sugar kalau makan banyak. Your steps sound good, cutting sweet drinks dan choosing green apples and jambu batu are solid choices. But since GDM is quite individual (depends on how your body processes carbs), I'd really suggest going back to your doctor or dietitian to get a meal plan yang tailor-made for you rather than trial-and-error sendiri, sebab they can monitor your readings properly. You're doing your best, and that worry shows how much you care, tapi let the experts guide you so you boleh rest easier
