A continuous glucose monitor (CGM) is a wearable device that tracks blood glucose (sugar) every few minutes, throughout the day and night. The readings are relayed in real time to a device which can be read by the patient, caregiver or health-care provider, even remotely

Diabetes distress
Using Diabetes Distress Screening Scale (DDSS17). The scale yields an overall distress score based on the average of response on the 1-6 scale for all 18 items. The DDS-17 identifies three levels of specificity of diabetes distress information for use in clinical care, from overall emotional distress related to diabetes to highly specific sources of diabetes distress. Higher score is worse.
Time frame: at 16-24 weeks gestation and at 34 weeks gestation
Sleep quality
Using the Berlin Questionnaire. The Berlin Questionnaire consists of three categories designed to elicit information regarding snoring (category 1), daytime somnolence (category 2), and the presence of obesity and/or hypertension (category 3). Categories 1 and 2 are considered positive if 2 or more responses are positive category 3 is considered positive if 1 response is positive and/or the body mass index is greater than 30 kg per meter squared. A patient is considered to have a high likelihood of sleep disordered breathing if 2 or more categories are positive
Time frame: at 16-24 weeks gestation and at 34 weeks gestation
Sleep apnea
Using the Berlin Questionnaire. The Berlin Questionnaire consists of three categories designed to elicit information regarding snoring (category 1), daytime somnolence (category 2), and the presence of obesity and/or hypertension (category 3). Categories 1 and 2 are considered positive if 2 or more responses are positive category 3 is considered positive if 1 response is positive and/or the body mass index is greater than 30 kg per meter squared. A patient is considered to have a high likelihood of sleep disordered breathing if 2 or more categories are positive
Time frame: at 16-24 weeks gestation and at 34 weeks gestation
Perceived social support
Using the Multidimensional Scale of Perceived Social Support (MSPSS). MSPSS is a 12-item scale that measures the adequacy of social support. It consists of 3 subgroups that include items about family, friends and social support from a special person. It consists of 4 items for each group and each item is graded on a 7-item likert scale. A high total score indicates a high level of perceived social support.
Time frame: 16-24 weeks gestation
