Patient's question:
My wife has gestational diabetes, and now the baby has been born. Could you please tell me what impact gestational diabetes has on breastfeeding for the child?Doctor's answer:
Does gestational diabetes breastfeeding have any impact on the child? Advice: Hello, if the child's blood sugar returns to normal within 6 hours after birth, it is better to start breastfeeding early, and it will not be affected. If the mother is receiving insulin treatment, breastfeeding will not have any adverse effects on the fetus. However, it is essential to pay close attention to controlling the mother's blood sugar and conducting regular checks.
