Diabetes Self-Management Education Program

Diabetes Prevention Program

Gestational Diabetes Management

(California Diabetes and Pregnancy Program, CDAPP, Sweet Success Affiliate)

It is for pregnant women with pre-existing diabetes or those who develop diabetes while pregnant. Gestational diabetes is when pregnant women show high blood sugar levels during their pregnancy, especially during their third trimester or between 24 and 28 weeks of pregnancy.

The program helps to prevent the complications of diabetes through pregnancy and promote healthy lifestyle changes in order to prevent recurrent gestational diabetes, or development of diabetes after pregnancy.
