Maternal gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) is associated with birth complications and, for the offspring, increased risk of insulin resistance, childhood obesity and type 2 diabetes in adulthood. This review aimed to clarify whether infant feeding, growth and nutritional intake in the first 2 years contribute to the mechanisms of these increased risks.
