Hi all,
I'm type 1 and this is my second pregnancy, I'm about 7 weeks. This one wasn't quite as planned as the first, but my hba1c was still good at 45 and I had been taking folic acid for a couple of months because we were going to start trying for baby no.2 in a few months...
My bgs have been pretty good, however, the other night my libre told me I was 2.9 and going down, so I had my usual orange juice, fell asleep, then woke up in the night at nearly 20! I spent the next few hours desperately trying to get it back down, which it did eventually, but it was out of range for about 5 hrs.
I feel completely guilty, and really I guess I'm just looking for some reassurance that others have had a big spike in early pregnancy and have still been okay.
