10. How to screen for gestational DM: At 24-28 weeks gestation: 1
hour glucose testing (non-fasting)
If above 130-140 then 3-hour glucose testing (fasting)
1 1. How to prevent pregnancy induced hypertension: Prevention
is key - regular exercise, increase protein diet, 8 glasses of water
per day, rest
12. How to treat PIH or chronic HTN during pregnancy: Labetalol,

diastolic > 110). Close monitoring, kick counts, NST, weekly 0B visits
