  Diagnosed of gestational diabetes
During the 24th week of pregnancy gestational diabetes is always diagnosed
This is when insulin resistance started. Informed your doctor if you have gestational diabetes before as the doctor can performed the test during pregnancy.

The doctor usually will ask you to get regular blood tests to check your blood sugar level. After the blood test, we will know that a normal blood sugar level is less than 105 mg per dL. This happen when you haven't eaten for a number of hours before the test (fasting) and less than 120 mg per dL 2 hours after a meal. These blood tests will let your doctor know if your diet and exercise are keeping your blood sugar level normal. If your blood sugar level is regularly higher than these levels, your doctor will ask you to start taking insulin to help lower blood sugar level.
