Routine Screening
Obese women will be screened at 24-28 weeks of gestation for gestational diabetes using the standard U.S. screening method of a 1-hour, 50-g glucose challenge test followed by a 3-hour, 100-g glucose tolerance test if abnormal. Women identified as having diabetes will be treated according to standards of care. All women will have a hemoglobin A1c and 1,5-anhydroglucitol checked at 14-18 weeks and 24-28 weeks gestation.
Early Screening
Obese women will be randomized to be screened at 14-19.9 weeks of gestation for gestational diabetes using the standard U.S. screening method of a 1-hour, 50-g glucose challenge test followed by a 3-hour, 100-g glucose tolerance test if abnormal. Women identified as having diabetes will be treated according to standards of care. Women who do not have diabetes at 14-19.9 weeks will be re-screened at 24-28 weeks per the standard of care. All women will have a hemoglobin A1c and 1,5-anhydroglucitol checked at 14-18 weeks and 24-28 weeks gestation. Early Screen: Women will be randomized to be screened for gestational diabetes at 14-19.9 weeks gestation (early=intervention) versus routine screening at 24-28 weeks.
