Detailed Description
This is an open-label pilot trial for the LabClasp combined with standard clinical care compared to standard clinical on [glucose] and blood pressure during pregnancy. Potential study participants will be pre-screened using questionnaires and review of their clinical records. Once the consent has been obtained, participants will undergo screening to confirm eligibility. Subjects who meet all criteria will be randomized to either LC+SC or SC cohorts for 24-39wks depending upon their gestational duration at enrollment. Study measures including anthropometrics, surveys/questionnaires, 24hr ABPM, accelerometry, and an oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT). Furthermore, the investigators will obtain repeated (annual) subject information including vitals, labs, medications, and development of cardiometabolic disorders for up to 10yrs in follow-up by reviewing Mayo Clinic medical records.

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Prevention of gestational diabetes mellitus and preeclampsia [24-39 weeks]
measuring glucose non-invasively will prevent gestational diabetes mellitus and preeclampsia during pregnancy
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Examine role of sleep as a potential mechanism in changing blood glucose in pregnancy [24-39 weeks]
measuring glucose non-invasively may aid in sleep, thereby improving blood glucose
- Examine role of sleep as a potential mechanism in changing blood pressure in pregnancy [24-39 weeks]
measuring glucose non-invasively may aid in sleep, thereby improving blood pressure
