Sumario:Background and Objectives: A cording to the importance of the effect of maternal health on pregnancy on the parts of the child’s mood, The purpose of this research was to determine and compare the perceptual sensitivity of infants of mothers with gestational diabetes and healthy mothers. Methods: This descriptive and causal-comparative research consisted of 88 mothers with infants aged 3-12 months who referred to the vaccination wards of Qom community health centers. The mothers were divided into two groups with and without a history of gestational diabetes. The research instruments were the IBQ-R infant mood assessment questionnaire and the individual information questionnaire. The data were analyzed using descriptive statistics, Mann-Whitney, Chi-square and SPSS software. Results: There is difference between the average perceptual sensitivity of infants of mothers with gestational diabetes and healthy mothers (P<0.05). the level of perceptual sensitivity in infants in mothers with a history of gestational diabetes is significantly higher than in infants of healthy mothers (P=0.034). Conclusion: Maternal diabetes during pregnancy is correlated to the perceptual sensitivity of infants. Maternal anxiety about the infant’s health can be reduced by justifying the infant’s behaviors by informing mothers with gestational diabetes in the postpartum period.
