The control (n = 4) and MSIS (n = 4) dams had blood analysed at baseline (prior to pregnancy), G18 (gestational day 18), or LD1 (lactation day 1). (Left) Blood corticosterone levels (ng/ml) did not differ between the control or MSIS dams. There was a significant decrease in corticosterone between baseline to G18 and LD1 for the control (p < 0.05), but not MSIS group. (Right) The MSIS dams had significantly higher blood glucose (mmol/L) level than control dams on G18 and LD1 (*p < 0.05). Both groups had a significant decrease in blood glucose levels from baseline to G18 and LD1. Data is presented as ± SEM.
