This means that your maternal health would be low due to your body not having enough energy and may also lose a lot of blood during birth. Being anemic could mean you are at a higher risk of postpartum depression. <strong><em>WATCH! </em></strong>for your iron levels and symptoms of dizziness, tiredness etc.<br>- GESTATIONAL DIABETES <strong><em>WHAT'S THAT? </em></strong><br>gestational diabetes occur when your hormones change causing your blood sugar levels to be high. However, because the baby has already taken the amount of sugar it needs to go on, the excess sugar is stored as fat, causing (in most cases), Gestational diabetes. <strong><em>RISKS&gt;&gt; </em></strong>developing type 2 diabetes after birth, miscarriage, higher chance of needing a c-section and other risks that would be determined by your docto<strong>r</strong><strong><em> AVOID!&nbsp; </em></strong>excessive sugar consumption<br><br></div>]]></description>
