Return To Diabetes FAQ Archive   What complications can you have with gestational diabetes? Answered By Editor There are two types of complications. Firstly, those that may affect your baby. These may include excess growth, low blood sugar (hypoglycemia), respiratory distress syndrome, jaundice, developing Type 2 diabetes later in life, and developmental problems. It is common for the baby to grow larger than normal, thus requiring delivery of the baby before due date or a possible C-section. Complications affecting the mother include Preeclampsia, urinary tract infections, and developing diabetes in the future. keywords: Diabetes | Diabetic | Gestational Diabetes | Pregnancy | Low Blood Sugar | Hypoglycemia | Respiratory Distress Syndrome | Jaundice | Type 2 Diabetes | Preeclampsia | Urinary Tract Infection Blood Glucose Values Blood Glucose Levels Blood Glucose Levels Normal
