Babies born to mothers with diabetes do not arrive into this world with the condition. However, if the mother did not control the diabetes before and during her pregnancy, the baby very likely will develop low blood sugar and will have to be monitored very closely after birth to ensure his or her body is making insulin adjustments properly.
One of the frequent effects on babies born to diabetic mothers is their large size at birth. These babies are more likely to become obese and eventually develop Type 2 diabetes later in life. It is imperative they develop excellent lifestyle habits of good diet and exercise to lessen the chance of this occurrence.
