Gestational diabetes (GDM) is diabetes which develops during pregnancy. It is a very common condition with about 10-15% of women developing GDM during their pregnancy. GDM usually starts in the second half of the pregnancy especially, generally after 20 completed weeks. Pregnant women with GDM will have abnormally raised bloods sugars. All pregnant women are tested for GDM at 24 to 28 weeks. Women with a high-risk of developing GDM are tested as early as 12 weeks. We recommend testing for GDM with the Oral Glucose Tolerance Test (OGTT). The previous screening test, Glucose Challenge Test (GCT), should not be used unless there are special conditions.
Women diagnosed with GDM are instructed to follow a strict diet and exercise program. In some cases, to enable optimal control of blood sugars, some women may be required to take tablets or have insulin injections. Tablets are the preferred approach as research has shown that pregnant women are generally more compliant with taking tablets that having to inject insulin. There are several increased risks factors for pregnant women with diabetes, with 30 from 100 women having larger than average babies. GDM pregnancies are more likely to require some form of intervention in labour and are an increased risk for having a caesarean section delivery. It is recommended that women with GDM start expressing and storing breast milk from 36 weeks of gestation. For women with GDM who require medication or injections, induction of labour at 38 – 39 weeks of gestation is recommended. Women with GDM who have controlled bloods sugars with diet alone, induction of labour at 39-40 weeks is recommended. Research has shown that the women with GDM are at increased risk of developing GDM in the future pregnancies and developing type 2 diabetes later in life. All women with GDM should have a repeat 75 gr GTT at 6 weeks post-delivery to confirm that the bloods sugars have returned to normal.

Great post! Thank you for the insightful article. I would like to include a little bit more information that gestational diabetes may not have obvious symptoms, but it will increase pregnancy toxemia and depression. The risk also increases the likelihood of a cesarean section.

I remember one day I sat down and counted all the men I have met in my life and I felt so small because I know I am not perfect but I give all I can to the man aiming to remain with him but at the end of the day I remained alone. Men could come and go and I couldn't see the money I was working for being paid a good salary but I couldn't prosper when the time came that I failed to put bread on the table. My friend Totty Brobyn advised me to contact Dr Azuka +2349166175418 for a special prayer of cleansing. Dr Azuka advised me that I must do a cleansing prayer to take away all the bad luck and genealogical curse which were following me, we did the prayer online since I was far from him. It took me three days to realize changes in my life. I was promoted at work, my boyfriend also came back to me and proposed to me we have been together for two years now and things are fine. We are preparing for our wedding this December. I know that prayers work and I strongly believe the prayers of [email protected] helped me to regain my happiness thanks, Dr Azuka.

Omg I Finally Got Helped !! I'm so excited right now, I just have to share my testimony on this Forum.. The feeling of being loved takes away so much burden from our shoulders. I had all this but I made a big mistake when I cheated on my wife with another woman and my wife left me for over 4 months after she found out.. I was lonely, sad and devastated. Luckily I was directed to a very powerful spell caster Dr Emu who helped me cast a spell of reconciliation on our Relationship and he brought back my wife and now she loves me far more than ever.. I'm so happy with life now. Thank you so much Dr Emu, kindly Contact Dr Emu Today and get any kind of help you want.. Via Email [email protected] or Call/WhatsApp cell number +2347012841542

My ex-husband and I had always managed to stay friendly after our divorce in February 2017. But I always wanted to get back together with him, All it took was a visit to this spell casters website last December, because my dream was to start a new year with my husband, and live happily with him.. This spell caster requested a specific love spell for me and my husband, and I accepted it. And this powerful spell caster began to work his magic. And 48 hours after this spell caster worked for me, my husband called me back for us to be together again, and he was remorseful for all his wrong deeds. My spell is working because guess what: My “husband” is back and we are making preparations on how to go to court and withdraw our divorce papers ASAP. This is nothing short of a miracle. Thank you Dr Emu for your powerful spells. Words are not enough.

I was really stressed by Acid reflux issues with my newborn and had consulted Chief Dr Lucky. He gave us a thorough consultation and the medicines were equally effective. In a couple of weeks there was big improvement in my son and we are very pleased with the progress. We cannot thank Chief Dr Lucky enough. Highly recommended.

After investing $80,000 in Stellar through Apex Crypto Solutions, I felt a surge of excitement as my investment skyrocketed to $150,000. However, my attempts to withdraw my funds were met with frustration. I filled out forms and submitted requests, but each time I was met with vague responses and delays. Days turned into weeks, and my concerns grew as I found numerous users reporting similar issues with Apex Crypto Solutions. Determined to recover my hard-earned money, I sought help and discovered RECOVERYBUREAUC Hacker, a company specializing in fund recovery. They guided me through the process, advising me to gather all necessary documentation—transaction records, communication logs, and anything related to my dealings with Apex Crypto Solutions. The team at RECOVERYBUREAUC Hacker worked diligently on my behalf, maintaining open lines of communication and providing regular updates on their progress. Finally, I received the call I had been waiting for: they had successfully negotiated with Apex Crypto Solutions and secured the release of my funds. The overwhelming sense of relief and gratitude I felt was immense. My initial investment, which had been a source of anxiety, was now safely in my account. I couldn’t have done it without RECOVERYBUREAUC @ GMAIL. COM

Hello everyone, I am from Wembley, Britain. I want to write this testimony to tell others and thank Dr. Odunga for what he has done for me. The first 12 years of my marriage I had 5 miscarriages and I was called all sorts of names by my mother-in-law and this made my marriage life very hectic and a burden of sorrow. I contacted Dr. Odunga for help and I will say that he is a very strong and honest man and he indeed helped me solve my problem. I saw his email in a testimony and I contacted him, little did I know it would be the end of all my problems. After 2 days of contact, I received a fertility herb and he told me to use it. The herb worked and my husband even loved me more and bought me expensive things. One afternoon, I went to a nearby hospital and came back home with the positive result of my pregnancy and after 9 months I gave birth to a baby boy. Ever since I contacted Dr. Odunga, my story has been different. I have 3 children at present and I am very happy in my marriage. Please, contact him at [email protected] OR Whats App him +2348167159012 to help you too

Last month I got ripped off about 245,000 USD in a pig butchering theft where I got contacted by a fake broker who introduced me to trade signals stating I could earn about 15percent profit on my trades so I gave it a try. At first I earned profits with little funds at the long run when I decided to input large funds I found out I couldn’t access my trade or withdraw my profits then I knew I’ve been cheated. Then I came on the web despite being an unsafe place, fortunately for me after thorough search I found RECOVERYBUREAUC @ GMAIL C0M with many positive reviews on asset recovery so I hired them and truly within few hours I could recover part of my stolen funds then the remaining subsequently. This was indeed a great assistance, report all theft cases to this specialist for ease retrieval. He’s the best and real deal
