Gestational Diabetes Information for Pregnancy
Gestational diabetes develops during pregnancy when hormonal changes make the body less responsive to insulin. Early diagnosis and proactive management are essential to keeping both mother and baby healthy. This hub provides clear, supportive guidance from diabetes specialist Dr Sultan Linjawi to help you understand GDM, monitor your blood glucose, follow pregnancy-safe diet and lifestyle strategies, and reduce risks during pregnancy and birth. You'll find information about diagnosis, glucose targets, diet and meal planning, weight gain, monitoring routines, insulin use in pregnancy, managing complications and postpartum follow-up. These resources are designed to empower you through each stage of pregnancy with practical, reassuring advice.
