Pre-gestational diabetes can cause several congenital anomalies in babies, most commonly cardiovascular defects. These babies are also at risk for intrauterine growth restriction. Delivery may be preterm to avoid birth injuries from potential macrosomia. Newborns are at risk of hypoglycemia, hypocalcemia, hypomagnesemia, and delayed control of parathyroid hormone in the first 24-72 hours after birth. They may also develop respiratory distress syndrome even when delivered at full term. Fetal hypoglycemia can also lead to hyperghagonemia and decreased gastrointestinal motility, causing delayed passage of meconium. Organomegaly in these newborns puts them at risk for issues like polycy
