Abstract

Objective: To solicit feedback from pregnant individuals with gestational diabetes mellitus (GDM) on a proposed lifestyle intervention.

Methods: We interviewed pregnant adults (n = 9) diagnosed with GDM ≥ 4 weeks at 2 obstetric clinics in the Hartford, CT, area. Participants provided feedback on a proposed intervention that included medically tailored meals, multimedia educational materials, and personalized support for physical activity. We conducted a practical thematic analysis of interview data.

Results: Participants' feedback can be described using 4 themes. First, the intervention will reduce the cognitive and emotional burden associated with managing GDM. Second, participants wanted the ability to tailor the intervention to their circumstances and preferences. Third, the intervention website should offer ready access to information and resources. Finally, participants expressed a desire for relatable content from other people with GDM to normalize their experiences and foster learning.

Conclusions and implications: Researchers developing lifestyle interventions for persons with GDM should consider participants' social context, including family food systems and available resources.
