Gestational diabetes is insulin resistance related to pregnancy hormones. These hormones are made by the placenta. When you deliver, you lose the pregnancy hormones with the placenta.

Your blood sugar, as well as your baby’s blood sugar, is managed and monitored in the hospital after delivery.

  • 6 to 12 weeks after delivery your doctor will schedule a follow up testing.
  • Yearly thereafter your PCP should draw an A1c to monitor for development of Type 2 Diabetes.
