  2. Excess Weight or Obesity Carrying extra weight before pregnancy increases insulin resistance, making it harder to control blood sugar. This raises the risk of gestational diabetes.

  3. Family History of Diabetes Having a parent or sibling with type 2 diabetes increases your chances. It suggests a genetic link to insulin resistance during pregnancy.

  4. Previous Gestational Diabetes If you had gestational diabetes before, your chances of having it again are higher—especially if lifestyle habits haven’t changed.

  5. Age Over 25 (Especially 35+) Risk increases with age. Women over 25—and especially over 35—may experience reduced insulin efficiency, making gestational diabetes more likely.

  6. Polycystic Ovary Syndrome (PCOS) PCOS is linked to hormonal imbalance and insulin resistance, raising the risk of developing gestational diabetes during pregnancy.

  7. Previous Large Baby (Over 9 lbs) Giving birth to a large baby previously may point to undiagnosed gestational diabetes and raises the risk in future pregnancies.

  8. Prediabetes Women with prediabetes—higher than normal blood sugar—are more likely to develop gestational diabetes during pregnancy.

  9. High Sugar Diet Frequent consumption of sugary foods and drinks can cause weight gain and blood sugar spikes, increasing diabetes risk.

  10. Thank You Your journey to motherhood deserves care and awareness. Stay informed, stay healthy — and always consult your doctor for safe pregnancy guidance. +91-8902235337 www.miraclefertility.in.
