Patients with diabetes during pregnancy will be supported through close management during pregnancy and immediately after delivery, to reduce the risk of complications to the mother and baby. This special program is led by obstetricians and is designed for mothers who develop diabetes during pregnancy (a condition called gestational diabetes) and those women who have diabetes before they become pregnant. The visits may involve seeing an endocrinologist, dietitian, or both. Medications, meal plans and exercises will be personalized to best fit the patient’s lifestyle and blood sugar patterns.
