10 Gestational Diabetes Symptoms
7. Breathing Difficulties For Babies
Babies that are born to mothers with gestational diabetes syndrome can go on to develop complications themselves. One of these complications is respiratory distress syndrome, which will make it very difficult for the baby to breathe. Babies born with the condition may need to be placed in intensive care.
In addition, the baby is also more likely to go on to develop type 2 diabetes later in life. This means that they can also go on to develop problems with obesity. Patients with type 2 diabetes will need to be careful about their diet and other lifestyle factors for the remainder of their lives.
