How Can Gestational Diabetes Be Treated?

Hello doctor. Am pregnant with twins. My random blood sugar tested at 3 months of pregnancy was normal.It was around 101. At 27 weeks I got tested with gestational diabletes. My readings are a bit high. FBS is 108, after one hour it is 174 and 2 hour it is 163. Please suggest what does it mean. I was not having diabetes before pregnancy as clearly shown by random blood sugar. What effect it can have on my babies and will it come back to normal after pregnancy?
