Your sugar levels are well within normal limits. Let me explain you. In pregnancy we consider Glucose Tolerance Test (GTT) as diagnostic which will tell exactly about the sugar levels at different time points. So get done this test as screening procedure. According to the current reports you are not diabetic and nothing will affect you or pregnancy or to your child. Hope this information helps you. Feel free to ask for any further queries.
