Firstly get yourself screened for diabetes by DIPSI test in which sugar levels are checked 2 hours after consumption of 75 gms of glucose ,You can consult your local gynaec about this. Your husband should follow a proper diet and exercise regime .It cannot be predicted whether your baby will have the same problem .Take care to breastfeed your baby for atleast 1 year .Start right after 1 hour of delivery or even before. Mothers milk contains protective antibodies and substances to protect from diabetes and other disorders in babies.
