Weight is an important issue with any diabetic, including those who get gestational diabetes.
One source says, “Women diagnosed with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) who gain more than the Institute of Medicine-recommended amount of weight are at increased risk for undesirable outcomes, including preterm delivery and cesarean delivery, research shows.”
Research also showed that women who had gained weight had larger babies and needed medical help with controlling their blood sugars.
