In this podcast, we’re going to talk about pregnancy and diabetes. If you have pre-diabetes, insulin resistance, or you’re a diabetic while pregnant, there are several things you need to know.

What is insulin resistance? — This is a condition where your body is not able to absorb insulin. Your body has to make more insulin than it needs, and that excess insulin creates a lot of problems. Your blood sugars may be normal, but you have a big problem under the surface. 

HOMA-IR is a test you can take before you get pregnant to check and see if you have insulin resistance.


Complications from having blood sugar problems while pregnant:

 • The baby is more likely to become a diabetic 

 • There is a higher risk of a stillbirth

 • The mother may have a problem with fertility

 • The baby may have stunted growth

 • The baby may have birth defects

 • The baby may have pre-eclampsia
