title: NICE guidance on diabetes in pregnancy: management of diabetes and its complications from preconception to the postnatal period. NICE clinical guideline 63. London, March 2008.
abstract: The care of pregnant women with disorders of glucose metabolism is a satisfying part of diabetes care but outcomes remain less than ideal. The evidence base to improve care has grown over subsequent decades and clinicians will welcome up-to-date NICE guidance on this topic. This review looks at the guidance from the perspective of a secondary care diabetes team.
