High blood sugar levels during pregnancy and labor can increase the risk of a baby developing low hypoglycemia after delivery due to the baby's body producing the extra insulin in response to the mother's excess glucose. Insulin may lower the amount of sugar in the blood as this may create a medical urgency.
