Hi doctor,
My sister is 21 years old with type 1 diabetes. When she was 35 weeks pregnant, she had a cesarean section delivery. The baby's heartbeat stopped and they could not get it started. The doctors are blaming it to be due to diabetes. They said that the baby's blood acid was 25, which is five times higher than normal. Her blood sugar was 25 at the time of delivery, because they gave her a glass of orange juice. This does not sound right. Please explain her condition to me.
