Correlation between Excessive Early Gestational Weight Gain and Risk of Gestational Diabetes Mellitus

Author(s): Vidhya Selvam, Vani K*, Kousica M and Yuvarani R

Abstract

Pregnant women with immoderate weight gain during their first trimester can be at higher risk for Gestational Diabetes Mellitus (GDM) and related maternal and fetal complications. The results from this study confirm the association between excessive weight gain during pregnancy, especially in the first trimester, and GDM. Changing lifestyle and doing simple exercises may avoid the development of GDM as a complication of pregnancy.
