, A condition of glucose intolerance, with no pre-existing occurrence, that begins and is
diagnosed during pregnancy only. This condition is diagnosed between 24-28 weeks
gestational age by an oral 50-gram glucose challenge test (GCT) during prenatal care. If
results are abnormal, a 100-gram oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) is carried out for
confirmation of the diagnosis. Classifications of this disorder include A1-(diet control)
and A2 (insulin control with diet). Maternal treatments include self-glucose monitoring,
diet, exercise and close maternal and fetal surveillance. This condition can lead to fetal
macrosomia or large for gestational age fetus (LGA), cephalopelvic disproportion
(CPD), Cesarean Section and hypoglycemia, hyperbilirubinemia (Jaundice), respiratory
distress syndrome (RDS) or hypocalcemia of the newborn. - ✔✔"Gestational Diabetes

the fluid by the infant at or after delivery may result in respiratory complications,
infection and/or other serious complications. Careful assessment of the time, amount,
color and odor of the amniotic fluid is of high priority, prior to birth." - ✔✔Meconium
