Of course, that changes everything, and you and your partner must take good care of your body and the baby growing inside. So, let\u2019s dive in and understand how to control blood sugar during pregnancy.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b><strong id=\"What-is-gestational-diabetes?\">What is gestational diabetes?<\/strong><\/b><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-70763 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.adityabirlacapital.com\/healthinsurance\/active-together\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Diabetes-during-pregnancy.jpg\" alt=\"Diabetes during pregnancy_Activ Living Community\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/533;\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Even if you start your pregnancy on a healthy note, there could be many complications that can come up during the nine months of pregnancy. One of the most common conditions is gestational diabetes. Developing diabetes and high blood pressure levels are very common during pregnancy, and it\u2019s up to your partner and family to be careful and supportive during this time. With gestational diabetes, your body does not produce enough insulin. It results in higher blood glucose or sugar accumulation levels in the bloodstream, leading to further health complications, including high blood pressure levels, preeclampsia (a health condition that causes <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adityabirlacapital.com\/healthinsurance\/active-together\/2023\/02\/20\/want-to-detect-high-blood-pressure-early-look-out-for-these-oral-symptoms\/\"><strong>high blood pressure<\/strong><\/a> and other symptoms that can be a threat to both you and your baby), excessive weight and intense breathing problems in newborn babies.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you are diagnosed with gestational diabetes, it\u2019s important to take care of your health and get treated as soon as possible, as it can negatively impact both your and your baby\u2019s health. While the causes of gestational diabetes are still being studied, gestational diabetes can always be managed, treated, and prevented.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2><b><strong id=\"What-are-the-symptoms-of-gestational-diabetes?\">Symptoms of gestational diabetes<\/strong><\/b><\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You can, at times, experience mild symptoms of gestational diabetes, including:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Tiredness<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Blurry vision<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Excessive thirst<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Excessive urination<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Yeast infections\u00a0<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h3><b>Who is at risk of developing gestational diabetes?<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">You may have more risk of developing this complication if you have the following conditions:<\/span><\/p>\n<ul>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adityabirlacapital.com\/healthinsurance\/active-together\/2023\/03\/08\/is-coconut-water-good-for-high-blood-pressure\/\"><strong>High blood pressure<\/strong><\/a><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Obesity before becoming pregnant<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">A sedentary lifestyle<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sudden gain in weight during pregnancy<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Past bouts of gestational diabetes<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Taking steroids, like glucocorticoids<\/span><\/li>\n<li style=\"font-weight: 400;\" aria-level=\"1\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">PCOS (Polycystic Ovary Syndrome)<\/span><\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<h2><b><strong id=\"How-to-control-gestational-diabetes?\">How to control gestational diabetes?<\/strong><\/b><\/h2>\n<p><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"aligncenter size-full wp-image-70768 lazyload\" data-src=\"https:\/\/www.adityabirlacapital.com\/healthinsurance\/active-together\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/11\/Exercise-during-pregnancy.jpg\" alt=\"Exercise during pregnancy_Activ Living Community\" width=\"800\" height=\"533\" src=\"data:image\/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAAAAACH5BAEKAAEALAAAAAABAAEAAAICTAEAOw==\" style=\"--smush-placeholder-width: 800px; --smush-placeholder-aspect-ratio: 800\/533;\" \/><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Here are some preventive strategies you can employ if you want to know how to control blood sugar during pregnancy:<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Take care of your health<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Keeping a constant check on your pregnancy will give you a heads-up on everything happening in your body. Recognizing early signs is very important for a healthy pregnancy. Always have your partner or a family member accompany you for regular checkups if anything is required. If you have other lifestyle conditions, consider a diabetes management plan.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Eat a healthy diet<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Most Indian families believe you must eat a lot during pregnancy. But with the increasing lifestyle changes, it is essential to tweak your diet plan. You need only 300 calories daily and nutrients from all food groups for the baby&#8217;s and your health. So eat healthy to keep your sugar levels in check with low-sugar dishes like rava and <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">upma <\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">for people with gestational diabetes. You can also consult a healthcare professional to create a healthy, customized diet.<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Exercise regularly<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"><strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adityabirlacapital.com\/healthinsurance\/active-together\/2023\/08\/22\/yoga-mudras-for-weight-loss\/\">\u00a0Practising yoga m<em>udras<\/em> <\/a><\/strong>or exercising safely will keep your blood sugar levels in check. Exercising also boosts blood circulation and aids in the growth and development process of the fetus. It will also help keep diabetes at bay. Consult your doctor on which exercises you can incorporate into your daily routine. Try light <a href=\"https:\/\/www.adityabirlacapital.com\/healthinsurance\/active-together\/2023\/07\/18\/3-effective-exercises-during-periods-what-you-need-to-know\/\"><strong>physical activities like walking<\/strong><\/a> to stay active.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Manage your weight<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Refrain from consuming processed juices or any sugary food. This may increase your sugar levels and create complications. Stick to wholesome, healthy foods, preferably made at home. Although weight gain is inevitable during pregnancy, try to manage your weight during pregnancy, as it can cause harm to you and your baby.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<h3><b>Take medication<\/b><\/h3>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you see signs of <strong><a href=\"https:\/\/www.adityabirlacapital.com\/healthinsurance\/active-together\/2021\/12\/10\/how-do-varying-blood-sugar-levels-affect-your-body\/\">high blood sugar levels<\/a><\/strong> in your body, discuss it with your doctor for the best possible treatment. Diabetes during pregnancy can be controlled with insulin therapy, and you should watch out for pre-diabetes symptoms.

This is because post-term delivery can increase the risk of getting gestational diabetes.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Picking up healthy habits is highly advisable for your and your baby\u2019s health. As a family, when you are picking up healthy habits, they are likely to last longer.
