[QUOTE="azure, post: 1396053, member: 39639"] If you were on a MDI regime you would have flexibility and wouldn't need to stick to regular meal times. You could even miss meals if you had to. I haven't seen any evidence either way about pregnancy. If you were on insulin, then I can't see why pregnancy would hurt your own insulin producing cells. I've had three children and have had diabetes 23 years and my insulin needs haven't increased hugely after each pregnancy. My consultant thinks I might still be making tiny amounts of insulin myself as my doses are low. Even if I'm not, the pregnancies haven't hurt me. You've asked about insulin preserving beta cells for longer. I am not a scientist or a medical person at all, but if I were to have LADA I would personally prefer insulin to drugs and I would want to,start it sooner rather than later. Just my opinion. [/QUOTE]
