Core Tip	This article reviews and highlights important areas concerning diabetic risk during and after the postpartum period in women with gestational diabetes mellitus. Optimizing the use of glycemic parameters and assessing beta-cell function, particularly in high-risk women, will facilitate early recognition of those on the path to pre-diabetes and diabetes. Lifestyle interventions designed to attenuate the progression should be carefully planned, taking into consideration the unique set of problems in these women. “Out of the box” thinking is necessary to design lifestyle intervention protocols that will have high acceptance by these women.
