~ Gestational Diabetes ~
Women can develop diabetes during pregnancy and may require an insulin dose, this is so important to know, to prevent the unborn baby from using its own pancreatic insulin to control the mother's sugar level.
After delivery, the mothers sugar level can go back to normal, but could also not. The mother is at risk of developing Type 2 in later years. These are warning signs, please be advised.
The persons with high factors are:
1st Nations
Hispanic
Asian or African Descent
person with a family member with diabetes
people with low HDL Cholesterol
If you know of someone at risk or you are at risk, get medical attention, the long term effects are life threatening.
