With these changes two to three times as many pregnant women could be diagnosed and treated for gestational diabetes in the future. Unless you've had a friend with gestational diabetes, though, it's unlikely that you know much about the condition.

Few studies have reported on telemedicine for diabetic pregnancies, so we conducted a study to assess the utility of a telemedicine approach to diabetic pregnancy management, in terms of glycaemic control, quality of life, and maternal and fetal outcomes.

The actual number of pregnant women with pre-existing diabetes… In 1999, there were 245 such women; by 2005, there were 537. That translates to a rate that rose from 8 per 1,000 pregnancies to 18 per 1,000. The rate increased the greatest among 13- to 19-year-olds giving birth.
