Brief Summary  

Recruitment and Enrolment-Eligible participants will be identified during routine antenatal visits

including its purpose, procedures, risks, and benefits. Written informed consent will be obtained from those

who agree to participate, Baseline Data Collection-At enrolment, the following baseline information will be recorded using a

history (previous GDM, hypertension, etc.), Family history of diabetes, Body mass index (BMI), Blood pressure,

Any concurrent medications or comorbidities,  3-Hour OGTT Procedure-Participants will be instructed to fast overnight (8–12 hours). On arrival, a

fasting venous blood sample will be collected. Participants will then consume a 75g glucose solution(depending on national guidelines). Blood samples will be drawn at 1 hour, 2 hours, after glucose intake. All samples will be analysed using standardized laboratory methods to ensure consistency.

Antenatal Follow-up-Participants will continue with routine antenatal visits. Study investigators will

monitor: -Compliance with GDM management. Any maternal complications (e.g., preeclampsia,

polyhydramnios, infections). Ultrasound findings (fetal growth, amniotic fluid index, etc.). Delivery and
