Pregnancy Diabetes I Delivery Issues | Early Labor with Gestational Diabetes? I Dr. Poornima Murthy
"Gestational diabetes will not have to be delivered early. It mainly depends upon the control of the sugars. If the sugars are well controlled and the sugar control does not require any oral hypoglycaemic agents and they are well controlled by just diet and exercises s the delivery can be done as late as 40 weeks. But if the gestational diabetes needs insulin or oral hypoglycaemic agents and the sugars are well under control then we can still wait up till about 38 or 39 weeks of gestation. On the other hand if gestational diabetes requiring insulin and oral hypoglycaemic agents and the sugar levels are not at all under control, then we may have to deliver them about 37 to 38 weeks of gestation and there is another particular segment of gestational diabetes we call as brittle diabetes, where irrespective of adequate exercises and adequate diet and maximum doses o f insulin or very high doses of insulin, sometimes patients requiring upto 100 to 120 units of insulin and still the sugars is not getting controlled at all, then these diabetic swill have to be delivered before 3 weeks, maybe 34 to 37 weeks. If macrosomia has set in. If baby’s weight is more than 4 kg and macrosimia has set in, it is an indication that diabetes is not under control, then we may have to deliver by 39 weeks, but macrosomia is along not an indication for induction of labor"
Easy Tips to Control Blood sugar during Pregnancy | Pregnancy Diabetes I Dr. Poornima Murthy
"Blood sugar during pregnancy is controlled in 3 ways, one is exercise diet and third is meditation. Usually diet and exercise are the first tried, if the blood sugars do not come under control with these two, then only medications are started. When we come to exercises exercise, as in she needs to go for half an hour to 45 minutes of walking everyday and the speed of the walk it depends on the comfort of the patient and there is something known as isometric exercise . Isometric exercises are done in the sitting posture at home. Here one kg weight are grasped in both the hands and there is flexion of the arm at the elbow joint, flexion and extension are continuous movements about 3 to 4 sets are done each set is topped when the patient is tired and when she has some amount of shortness of breath. These are isometric exercise and any other form of exercise can be performed like yoga she can go for swimming and some amount of light dancing can be done. Coming to diet, diet she has to follow a diabetic diet, she has to take regular frequent meals, she has to keep up her time an these meals are divided into 6 portions, one is breakfast lunch and dinner, and in between breakfast and lunch, and in between lunch and dinner and late midnight snack, here the carbohydrate should constitute about 50 to 55% and proteins about 20 to 25% and fat about 15% and in between snacks should consist about whole-wheat bread and some biscuits devoid of sugar and direct sweets to be avoided and pastries, cakes, chocolates, ice creams to be avoided and sugar has to be brought down, rice content to be brought down, and she needs to eat more of wheat and ragi and after every meal if she can do some amount of light walking, that would very very helpful and the last would be medications. Medications would be oral hypoglycemic agents and insulin. Insulin is given for all diabetic patients. But now oral hypoglycaemic agents like metformin and glipizide are used and the doses of these are adjusted according to the sugar of the patient"

Pregnancy Diabetes or Gestation Diabetes AFTER DELIVERY | Glucose Challenge Test I Dr. Poornima Murthy
"This is the commonest question asked by all the patients, the answer is no, gestational diabetes is the diabetes appearing the first time in pregnancy and most of them will disappear after pregnancy. It disappears so fast that the day after delivery their sugars crash back to normal. After the delivery what we do is we allow the patients to have a normal diet and we check their sugars 6 weeks after delivery by doing the oral glucose challenge test and if the oral glucose challenge test is abnormal that is the value is more than 140 mg per decilitre then we tell them that they remain diabetes, but the chances of gestational diabetes turning not diabetes immediately after delivery, the chances are very low, having said this there are occasional where the gestational diabetes who have been out in high dose of insulin or oral hypoglycaemic agents they have the chance to remain diabetic even after delivery but their requirement of insulin or oral hypoglycaemic agents will come down. For patients who have not been found to be diabetic about 6 weeks after delivery, however we advise that they may turn diabetic later in their life, maybe about 5 to 10 years later. So to prevent that do lifestyle modification, as in follow the diet. Go for regular exercises, watch their weight and that way they can avoid becoming diabetic for the rest of their life or they can postpone the onset of diabetes or if they get diabetes atleast they can avoid taking medications like insulin oral hypoglycaemic agents and if at all they require insulin or oral hypoglycaemic agents the dose would be very small"
