Expecting Mom due in 3 months2 weeks ago

Q.

Hi Doctor, in OGTT, my readings were 200 and 250. Currently, my Fasting sugar is not dropping below 100, it stays between 120-130 (came 100 only twice). My Post-Dinner sugar is now under control between 130-140 (initially it was 180). As my doctor said starting insulin if it's not controlled, should I start it based on these fasting readings? Also, is insulin completely safe during pregnancy, and at what range should I start it? Please advise.
