Guest guest Posted November 8, 2002 Report Share Posted November 8, 2002 I was wondering if anyone knows of any possible links between a mother having gestational diabetes and having a child with cf? I had this with PJ and asked the doctor if this increased his risk of developing cfrd later in life due to it. He hadn't heard of any studies being done on the topic. Does anyone know of a connection? Or if the baby would be at higher risk when they get older? I have type 2 diabetes all over my family and was told that I would more than likely develope type 2 diabetes in a few years since I had such a severe case of GD. I was thinking if no studies have been done, how interesting one would be. Maybe to find out how often cfrd occurs in cfer's who's mothers had GD. Ya'll are a great bunch with LOADS of information, so I figured I ask see if anyone knew. Jen A. mom to 4, Yolo 2 1/2 and Phynix 6 months all w/cf. _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 with e-mail virus protection service: 2 months FREE* http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
