Question

Does high blood sugar during pregnancy affect the baby?

Answer

A slightly elevated blood sugar level is generally not a concern. In fact, higher blood sugar can lead to a healthier baby, although the baby might be slightly larger. Guidance: As long as the baby is not excessively large and can be delivered normally, these children tend to be healthier. So, there’s no need to worry. The main concern is not to have an overly large baby. This is a sign of gestational diabetes.
