[QUOTE="Mrssimison, post: 383477, member: 64541"] Hi, Is there any chance you could be considered for an insulin pump? I have never been pregnant but when I mentioned I was keen to start a family in the near future my consultant did everything to get me a pump as my Hb1ac was too high (8%) and working with the pens was not working for me- it is terrible that you were made to feel you were being judged, hopefully they are just concerned over you unborn child? not trying to make you feel bad, but we all know the risks of getting pregnant with bad control. Not sure if this is recommended but have you thought about following low carb? it really does wonders for my control, and may help reduce the chances of weight gain you are worried about - i would check it out with ur dr/diet. cos not sure on impact of that diet for pregnancy though? Good luck :) [/QUOTE]
