What tests are performed on baby of gestational diabetic mother?

Question

Obviously sugar level will be tested. But how is it done? any other tests you know please tell me.

Answer 1

They only test the sugar level. They do a heel prick and test the blood. They check it every few hours for the first 24 hours.

I had gd and my son's blood sugar was a bit low. As long as you're able to feed the baby right away, it shouldn't be a problem.
