Hi all,
I am currently 30 weeks pregnant with my second child and have been recently switched over to a LADA diagnosis from a Type 2.
I’ve had fairly steady readings throughout this pregnancy and had the same all the way through with my first child. I have had no issues with either pregnancy so far and sailed through my first, with no sickness, major fatigue etc. I totally get every pregnancy is different, but so far this time around has been very much the same as last time.
Over the last couple of days I have felt totally whacked and lethargic and today my sugars have been running high, or at least higher than usual, all day. I’m usually able to stick pretty much to target but I’m baffle today!
Last nights bedtime readin with 6.9mmol and I had nothing to eat after dinner, which I only managed half a jacket potato and a bit of salad as my appetite had been a bit off as had been feeling a bit sicky during the day.
This morning’s pre-breakfast reading was 9.8mmol which totally threw me and has been above my normal levels at every ready so far today. I had lunch well over an hour later than I usually would and is was 6.9mmol, where as I’m usually close to, if not having a hypo by then if I haven’t eaten. And now dinner tonight is 10.1mmol, although I did have a banana without insulin a couple of hours ago which ch could account for that.
I’ve not had chance to speak with my diabetic nurse but in all fairness, only seems to have suddenly spiked today, so just monitoring for the mo
Anyone else experienced this or have any advice to offer?

I think from now until she’s born in 6 weeks it’s going to be changing every week so I’m just preparing myself for a further increase x
