Doctor's answer:
Hello: If you are pregnant, in addition to paying attention to preventing colds, strengthening nutrition, getting adequate rest, and undergoing regular prenatal check-ups, you should also be vigilant about gestational diabetes. You might say, "I'm not overweight, I don't eat much, and I don't have a family history of diabetes—how could I get gestational diabetes?" In fact, it's not that simple. Clinically, many women with gestational diabetes show no symptoms, but laboratory tests reveal high blood sugar levels. If gestational diabetes is not taken seriously, it can cause serious harm to both the mother and the child.What should women with gestational diabetes pay attention to? First and foremost is dietary control—avoiding sweet foods and high-sugar foods, eating fewer starchy foods, eating small meals frequently, and strictly controlling blood sugar under the guidance of a doctor. This helps maintain normal blood sugar levels while ensuring the mother and child receive adequate nutrition, preventing ketosis, and maintaining normal weight gain. You can eat low-sugar fruits like cucumbers and tomatoes.
If blood sugar control is not ideal, treatment should be given, such as insulin injections or medication to manage diabetes. Fetal development, maturity, and placental function should be monitored. If necessary, pregnancy may need to be terminated early.
