I support women with gestational diabetes so they understand what's happening, have a clear plan and reach birth calm and well supported.
I'm an obstetrician specialising in Maternal-Fetal Medicine and head of a hospital Diabetes and Pregnancy Unit. Every week I see the same situation repeat: a woman receives the diagnosis, gets scared and, between one appointment and the next, often feels alone, recording glucose readings, trying to work out what she can eat and waiting for someone to review her data.
I also see the opposite: when that data is reviewed frequently, interpreted in the context of the pregnancy and the necessary adjustments are made in time, the experience changes. Often what's needed isn't more numbers, but someone to help understand what they mean and what to do with them.
That's why I created this programme: to offer private, close and continuous monitoring of gestational diabetes during the weeks that remain until birth.
“The difference isn’t just recording numbers, but having someone with experience review them every week, put them in context and adjust the plan in time.”
I review your glucose readings every week, not just during appointments, to spot patterns and make the necessary adjustments in time.
I don't assess glucose data in isolation, but alongside your baby's growth and the progress of your pregnancy.
The weeks that remain matter and I'll explain this clearly, but never through fear or guilt.
I work alongside a midwife experienced in nutrition, physical activity, birth preparation and breastfeeding. We share information so that your whole care follows a single plan.
The initial assessment costs €280 and includes the visit, an ultrasound and a personalised plan. If I think it can provide useful information in your case, we'll place a sensor for 14 days to get to know your glucose patterns better. The assessment does not commit you to continuing with the programme.
