I’ve had my baby, now what?

Shanna, Jessette, and Rui tell us about their experience of staying on track with healthy living after delivery.

Once you’ve given birth, most healthcare providers want to ensure your blood sugars have returned to normal. You may be required to repeat your oral glucose tolerance test 6 weeks after delivery.

It is also recommended that you maintain the healthy habits you adopted in pregnancy like healthy eating and regular exercise to reduce your risk of developing type 2 diabetes later in life.
