Summary

The purpose of the proposed study is to assess the distribution of carbohydrates and fat in the diet of women with type 1 diabetes during pregnancy. More specifically, it will look at the distribution of carbohydrate in the diet during weeks 29-32 of pregnancy. The carbohydrate distribution and fat content of the meal will be compared to maternal glucose control, preprandial glucose levels, and the percentile for weight of the infant at birth. In addition, each meal and snack will be classified as low-moderate fat or high fat.

Conditions

  • Diabetes in Pregnancy

Interventions

OTHER

Carbohydrate intake

By calculating carbohydrate amounts at meals and snacks, as well as classifying meals and snacks as high fat, the investigators will examine the correlation to higher preprandial blood glucose values and large for gestational age infants.
