Summary

This study looked at 40 women after childbirth to compare hormone levels and breast milk makeup between those who had gestational diabetes and those who did not. Researchers measured hormones like insulin and leptin in blood and milk, and checked the milk's energy, protein, fat, and sugar content. The goal was to learn more about how gestational diabetes may affect a mother's milk and her baby's early nutrition.
