@Hazzaewatson Pregnancy is hard work when you have diabetes as you have to keep your blood sugar very tightly controlled. But it's perfectly possible. :)

Take a look around the oregnancy section here and read about other women who are pregnant, planning to get pregnant, or have given birth.

Welcome! It is hard work but no reason why you can't do it! Depending on what your hbac1 is you may need to spend some time lowering it before you start trying but the targets aren't impossible! The extra care you get whilst pregnant is amazing! Extra scans and appts with your diabetes team it's really reassuring! Good luck next week! xxx
