History of Pregnancy-Linked Diabetes Helps Predict Its Return
Women who had gestational diabetes in their first and second pregnancies are at greatly increased risk for the condition in future pregnancies, a new study finds.
Gestational diabetes can lead to early delivery, cesarean section and type 2 diabetes in the mother, and may increase a child's risk of developing diabetes and obesity later in life.
"Because of the silent nature of gestational diabetes, it is important to identify early those who are at risk and watch them closely during their prenatal care," lead author Dr. Darios Getahun, a research scientist/epidemiologist in the research and evaluation department at Kaiser Permanente Southern California, said in a Kaiser news release.
In this study, researchers analyzed the medical history of more than 65,000 women who delivered babies at a Kaiser Permanente Southern California medical center between 1991 and 2008.
Compared to women who didn't have gestational diabetes in their first and second pregnancies, those who had the condition in their first but not second pregnancies were more than six times as likely to develop it in their third pregnancy. Women who had gestational diabetes in their first and second pregnancies were almost 26 times more likely to have it during their third pregnancy, the team report.
The risk of gestational diabetes recurrence was higher in Hispanics and Asian/Pacific Islanders than in whites. Recurrence was also more common in women 30 and older and in those with a longer period of time between any two of their successive pregnancies.
The findings, published online in the American Journal of Obstetrics and Gynecology, highlight the importance of educating and counseling pregnant women who developed gestational diabetes in a previous pregnancy, said the researchers.
"Clinicians should be aware and counsel potential pregnant women about their increased risk and that early detection and initiation of treatment is important, because unrecognized or untreated gestational diabetes is likely to lead to adverse maternal and fetal outcomes," Getahun said.

Could you repeat that? Is the fastest and easiest way to desert smoking?I am having surgery on January 9th, I exactly maintain to completely desert tomorrow. I am on the insignia, but I keep cheating and taking single before two puffs each a small number of hours. It no more than totals to maybe 2 cigarettes a daylight hours, but I need to be present completely smoke free of charge to depart under the anesthesia. I know its at ease to say, truly don't achieve it, but I feel like I maintain nix control, nix willpower, nix no matter which! I maintain been smoking 2 packs a daylight hours used for 17 years. Achieve I maintain a venture?Of course of course of course you maintain a venture!!! I truly desert 5 months in the past and I couldn't feel better! My proposal would be present gum, cinnamon has been proven to control the urges used for not no more than the nicotine, but and food so you won't bolt as a substitute of smoking. And, nicotine urges end on ordinary 8-10 minutes-so if you can take a fleeting move, clean something, call a colleague, truly develop your mind inedible the urge, it be supposed to pass by the era you maintain finished your task. Each urge you pass up is no more than going away to cause to feel you stronger!! You CAN achieve it :)
