Continuous blood sugar monitoring helps pregnant women with diabetes

by Marijke on September 26th, 2008

Women with diabetes (diagnosed before pregnancy) who monitor their blood glucose (sugar) continuously appear to have better control of their blood glucose and a lower risk of delivering a larger baby. Babies of mothers with diabetes are often larger than usual due to their quicker than normal growth. This can cause complications during delivery and can increase the baby’s risks of health issues down the road.
