Pregnancy
While women with diabetes were once discouraged from having children, today's treatments have made it possible to have a safe and healthy pregnancy. The key to a healthy pregnancy is keeping blood glucose in the target range -- both before a woman is pregnant and during her pregnancy. New research shows how diabetic women and their babies can stay healthy.
