Summary

The investigators primary objective is to conduct a randomized trial to determine the effect of diabetes group prenatal care on glycemic control and postpartum weight retention in women with type 2 diabetes and gestational diabetes.

Detailed description

Long term, the investigator aims to test the central hypothesis that group prenatal care, compared to traditional prenatal care, will improve, 1.) glycemic control and, 2.) postpartum weight retention in women with type 2 and gestational diabetes.
