I didn't know there was any risk it goes to baby?
No my son isn't having any checks, ive not see anything to say there is a risk but i know someone that had GD and their son found out they had diabetes at 8, im probably just over thinking, it just worries me
I think diabetes as a kid is either genetic or random as it would be Type 1 and gestational is a type 2 so not related though the symptoms are the same. So nothing to worry about as it's not going to be linked x
Children of mothers with gestational diabetes are at higher risk of diabetes I just wasn't sure if I was missing getting her tested, thank you.
@J I heard it was type 2. I thought type 1 was more genetic or random
Hi hasn't happened to me but just wanted to check is your son having checks? I'm having them annually but nobody has said about my daughter having them. Thank you!
