  • We measured blood glucose, calcium and magnesium level by postnatal age in 18 large infants of gestational diabetic mothers who delivered at Dept. of Obstetrics, Ewha Womans Univ. Hospital from jan. 1983 to june 1987, and compared with 21 control infants.
    1) Incidence of infants of gestational diabetic mothers was 0.5%. Among them, incidence of large ingants was 33.9%.
    2) The incidence of IGDM was highest between 25-29years of maternal age.
    3) In the birthwerght distribution, 34.0% of the cases were above 4.0kg.
    4) The blood glucose level of IGDM by postnatal age was significantly lower(50.9mg%) than control group at birth.
    5) The incidence of hypoglycemia in IGDM was significantly higher(50%) than control group at birth.
    6) The blood clcium level of IGDM was significantly lower than control group at 24hr(6.99mg%) and 48hr(7.27mg%).
    7) The incidence of hypocalcemia in IGDM was significantly higher than control group at 24hr(50%) and 48hr(38.9%).
    8) There was no hypomagnesemia in IGDM.
