Purpose of review This examines the complex relationship between gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) and breastfeeding outcomes, integrating recent evidence on maternal health benefits, milk composition, clinical support strategies. Understanding these relationships is important as GDM affects approximately 14% pregnancies worldwide, with rates continuing to rise alongside increasing obesity age. Recent findings Women who breastfeed for longer periods after show significant improvements in metabolic health, including reduced weight retention better cardiometabolic profiles. While macronutrient content breast appears preserved, differences exist human oligosaccharides fat globule membrane proteins. A previous history predominant shows a 47% reduction abnormal fasting glucose odds subsequent pregnancies. Initial positive indications personalized programs, particularly during pregnancy, are emerging however evaluation comparison current evidence-based interventions yet be carried out. Lifestyle factors known reduce suggests pregnancy may improve outcomes. Summary Despite challenges delayed secretory activation supply women GDM, successful offers substantial benefits. Healthcare providers could implement comprehensive, individualized strategies beginning extending through postpartum period optimize outcomes both mother infant.
