Gestational Diabetes with Dr. Michael Kinson

About 1 in every 20 pregnant people will develop diabetes during pregnancy. Most won't feel any symptoms, which is why screening at 26-28 weeks is important. The screening involves a "glucose challenge" where you will be asked to drink a sugary drink and then have your blood drawn 1 hour later. For more information about screening check out this video with Dr. Michael Kinson, assistant professor of clinical obstetrics and gynecology.
