In the MiTy (Metformin in Women With Type 2 Diabetes in Pregnancy) randomized trial of metformin versus placebo added to insulin, we found numerous benefits with metformin but identified an increased proportion of infants who were small for gestational age (SGA). We aimed to determine the predictors of SGA in order to individualize care.
