Answer to Question 1

It is imperative that the mother understand the importance of maintaining normal blood glucose levels. Divide daily calorie intake among three meals and two to four snacks, depending on individual needs. The dietitian should determine total calories. Take vitamins and iron as prescribed. Avoid foods that include concentrated sugars. Eat meals regularly; never skip meals or breaks. Eat a nutritious bedtime snack to prevent an early morning rise in glucose levels. Eat foods high in fiber. Avoid alcohol and not more than 16 oz of caffeine is recommended. Formulate a dietary plan with the client.
