The number of women with diabetes attending the nutrition department of the Rotunda maternity hospital in Dublin rose by 52pc between 2005-2011.
Due to the increase in demand for the service, the dietician has had to prioritise patient referrals for higher-risk patients, according to its annual report.
The National Maternity Hospital also reported that the numbers of new referrals of women with various kinds of diabetes increased from 53 in 2010 to 113 in 2011.
