Taking sugar during pregnancy is not really a bad thing. Just make sure it is not in large amounts. If you have gestational diabetes, you should be extra-cautious with your sugar intake. Women with gestational diabetes or type 2 diabetes need to be under close medical supervision during pregnancy.
Excess sugar can cross the placenta and make the baby grow bigger than normal which can lead to complications during delivery. In such cases, the mother may have to go through a cesarean section or give birth to the baby prematurely.
Foods such as cookies, cakes, and soft drinks contain more refined sugar which may be harmful. You can replace these with healthy natural sugars which can be gotten from whole grains, honey, fruits and vegetables.
