[QUOTE="azure, post: 1392386, member: 39639"] Check out the Pregnancy section here. A pregnancy with Type 1 is hard work but I wouldn't say that the risks to a baby are "high" at all. If an expectant mother controls her blood sugar and stays in range, then that's the most important thing. Having another child is a personal decision, whether you're diabetic or not, so only you can decide ultimately. If you're just seeking opinions, then personally I'd never let diabetes dictate my life unless there was a medical reason why oregnancy was very dangerous. "Just" Type 1 is fine, in my opinion. I have 3 children and theyre all fine. Diabetes doesn't affect my ability to be a good mum, and I've never got the impression my children mind about it at all. Moreover, with a cure getting closer and closer, and at worst, much improved treatments, then that should be borne in mind. I have a pump and feel as normal as any other mum. [/QUOTE]
