Gestational Diabetes

Transcript: Gestational diabetes is a type of glucose intolerance where the first symptoms first present themselves in pregnancy. (Whitelaw & Gayle, 2011) Gestational Diabetes Increase insulin resistance. Hyperglycemia Placenta produces cytokines which increase the risk of gestational diabetes. Glucose in the blood can circulate to the baby Baby may not produce enough insulin to combat the excessive glucose produced by mother. Having gestational diabetes may increase the size of the baby which in turn increases the chances of the child developing obesity and type 2 diabetes. Hypoglycemia Macrosomia -> premature birth -> respiratory distress. If mother develops ketones it can cross the placenta and be harmful to the baby. Babies glucose level may be affected by the mothers glucose level during breastfeeding. Pathophysiology Insulin Injections References (2012, 21). Gestational Diabetes.

Some women suffer from excessive thirst, urination and fatigue. The screening test available is a non-fasting glucose test. If more than 7.2 mmol/l of glucose a secondary test is conducted called an oral glucose tolerance test. Signs and Symptoms Monitoring Blood Glucose Levels Drug Therapy Statistics Baby after birth Diet Management Jade McWaters Kate White Amanda White 40-60% chance of developing type 2 diabetes 5-15 years after giving birth. Mother may not be resistant to insulin anymore. Testing is recommended up to 2 weeks after delivery. Glucose tolerance test. Development of gestational diabetes in future pregnancies.
