[QUOTE="1Sarah1, post: 1179621, member: 66236"] Hi [USER=306412]@Jd040767[/USER] as the lovely ladies above have already said it's possible to get your hba1c down. Ring your dsn asap for ante natal care though. The key for me through both my pregnancies (2yr old and twins) was lots of testing. I take it you are not pumping? I personally couldn't have done it without the pump as suffered badly with dawn phenomenon. I have been diabetic since I was 2 and my hba1cs never great but once I was pregnant that's it-there is a baby relying on you. Do you know what your carb ratios are and is your long acting right? (Take some carb free meals to check it). I also tested twice a night religiously -second time round my daughter used to wake me up (who has recently also been diagnosed type1) so didn't need to set my alarm but did the first time. Targets normally about 5.5 before meals and 7.5 an hour after xx [/QUOTE]
