Dr. Robert Killian answered

Specializes in General Practice

Pregnancy Health : Yes. Of course this is common. But, it can also represent a common pregnancy complication known as gestational diabetes. Every visit you have with your OB they will be testing for this specific complication. If this persists or worsens i would make an appointment to see your ob.
