The detection of gestational diabetes mellitus carried out in accordance with the O’Sullivan & standard of NDDG (national diabetes data group). MS Excel V.7 was in use descriptive analysis of the collected information. Median values were in use for the description of the discrete & continuous information and percentages were in for the presentation of the categorical information. Results: Prevalence of the gestational diabetes mellitus was 6.10% (n: 94) out of the sum results of the pregnancies but 78 gestational diabetes mellitus patients were the part of this research work. We found the maternal & neonatal morbidity as 33% (N: 25) & 29.50% (N: 23). The average age of the patients was 35years. Most of the patients were multipara as 50% (n: 39). The highest body mass index was available in the 3rd trimester of pregnancy as 32.3 & the hemoglobin of the patients was 10.7. The rate of the cesarean section was 25.6% (n: 20) while 19.2% (n: 15) patients developed hypertension because of pregnancies. About 14.1% (n: 11) neonates got admission in neonatal ICU followed by hypoglycemia of neonates in 24.4% (n: 19) neonates. About 19.2% (n: 15) neonates were suffering from the distress of the respiratory system. Conclusion: Prevalence of gestational diabetes mellitus was 6.10%.
