Pregnancy can make the entire family very happy, especially for first-time mothers who are extremely excited and joyful. However, pregnancy is also quite difficult, and pregnant mothers may experience many discomfort symptoms and even trigger some chronic diseases during pregnancy. I would like to ask what happens if pregnant women have poor blood sugar control?
Pregnant women are prone to high blood sugar during pregnancy, so they need to strictly pay attention to their diet in order to effectively control changes in blood sugar. If the blood sugar control of pregnant women is not good during pregnancy, it can cause serious harm to the fetus, as it leads to the excess sugar in the mother's body entering the fetus's body, consuming a large amount of oxygen and endangering the baby's life safety.
Pregnant women with high blood sugar during pregnancy are also prone to inducing fetal high blood sugar, which can affect fetal development and even cause delayed lung development in severe cases. Moreover, pregnant women with high blood sugar levels have higher levels of carbohydrates in their blood, and their babies will also receive higher levels of nutrients. This can easily lead to the birth of macrosomia, increase the difficulty of childbirth, and may also cause the mother to experience side cutting or tearing.
In order to avoid the adverse effects of continuous high blood sugar on pregnant women and fetuses, pregnant women need to arrange their diet reasonably during pregnancy, go to the hospital regularly to check their blood sugar levels, adjust their diet in a timely manner according to changes in blood sugar levels, and if necessary, cooperate with doctors to use blood sugar control drugs to prevent high blood sugar during pregnancy.
