Diabetic Kidney Disease

Babies born to mothers with diabetic kidney disease have a higher risk of stillbirth, respiratory distress, jaundice.

And an abnormally small body size compared to babies of mothers with diabetes without kidney problems.

Also, about 30% of these babies are born prematurely. You will need to have tight blood-sugar control and careful control of blood pressure before and during the pregnancy.

It can be done, but know the risks before you get pregnant.
