A woman in the second trimester of pregnacy tells her physcian thay she has been urinating excessively for the past week. In addition, she has been extremely thirsty. The next day the physcian does a fasting blood glucose test and finds her glucose level to be 150 mg/dl (normal should be below 100 mg/dl). The physcian makes a diagnosis of gestational diabetes and begins treatments. What is the link between the diagnosis of gestational diabetes and the patient's signs of excessive urination abd thirst?
