This study is looking at how different blood sugar (glycemic) targets affect pregnant women who have gestational diabetes and are also overweight or obese. Researchers are comparing two approaches: an "intensive" target, aiming for fasting blood glucose below 90 mg/dL and 1-hour post-meal below 120 mg/dL, versus a "standard" target, aiming for fasting below 95 mg/dL and 1-hour post-meal below 140 mg/dL. The study wants to see if the intensive targets can reduce problems for newborns. You might be able to join if you are a pregnant woman between 18 and 45 years old, carrying one baby, are between 12 and 32 weeks pregnant, have gestational diabetes, and had a BMI of 25 or higher at your first prenatal visit. The study plans to enroll 828 participants, but its current status is unclear.
