    Gestational diabetes (GD) is a condition where high blood sugar levels develop during pregnancy. It occurs when pregnancy hormones interfere with the body's ability to produce enough insulin to regulate blood sugar. Women with GD are at risk of complications during delivery like difficult labor and need for C-section. Babies may be large and have breathing issues or low blood sugar. Treatment involves frequent monitoring, healthy diet, exercise and sometimes medication to control blood sugar. After pregnancy, women should be tested for diabetes and monitor blood sugar long term as GD increases risk of future diabetes.
