Patient's question:
I am 8 and a half months pregnant with a fasting blood sugar of 5.3 and a post-meal blood sugar of 7.2. What effect does this have on the baby?Doctor's answer:
Hello, as you mentioned, this is generally basically confirmed as gestational diabetes. If a pregnant woman develops diabetes, it can affect a normal delivery, and the likelihood of the fetus developing some chronic diseases in the future is also high. It is recommended to pay attention to controlling diet and avoid high-fat, high-calorie, and high-starch foods. Also, pay attention to increasing exercise.
