Diabetes is the most common medical disorder of pregnancy and the incidence
of type 2 diabetes is increasing. Although pregnancy outcomes have improved
for both mother and baby over past decades, much needs to be done to reach the
aspiration of similar outcomes to nondiabetic pregnancies, which many believe
to be a realistic goal. Improvements can be achieved through better
multidisciplinary management, although the best approach to gestational
diabetes remains controversial.
