O Strongly advise women with diabetes whose
HbA1c level is above 86 mmol/mol (10%)
not to get pregnant because of the
associated risks of both minor and major
anomalies are increased .
Common anomalies:
Cardiac…the most common , increased five
fold in fetuses of diabetic pt. (
VSD,ASD,TGV… )
- CNS. A 10-fold increase is seen in the incidence
of CNS malformations,( anencephaly,
holoprosencephaly, open spina bifida ,
microcephaly, encephalocele, and
meningomyelocele
mortality rate.
⚫ Birth weight:
The macrosomic baby of the diabetic mother is fatty and
plethoric, with all organs, with the exception of the
brain, being enlarged due to an increase in cytoplasmic
mass.

O Advise pregnant women with type 2 diabetes or
gestational diabetes to test their fasting and 1-
hour post-meal blood glucose levels daily during
pregnancy if they are:
- on diet and exercise therapy or
-taking oral therapy (with or without diet and
exercise therapy) or single-dose intermediate-
acting or long-acting insulin.
[NICE 2015]
O Measure HbA1c levels in all pregnant women
with pre-existing diabetes at the booking
appointment to determine the level of risk for
the pregnancy.
[NICE
2015]
O The general recommendation is for daily
glucose monitoring four times a day, once after
fasting and again after each meal.
O The 1-hour postprandial measurement was
associated with better glycemic control, a lower
incidence of LGA infants, and lower rates of
