Thanks Yeah they mentioned a diabetic pregnancy team, potentially a mental health team, just wasn't sure how quickly we should expect to hear from them. But we seem to be on the right path for the minute thanks for the replies Nicole!

Thanks Nicole She's been working like crazy to get her sugars down over the past 12 months. Unfortunatelyshe had a miscarriage, but we were very unaware she was pregnant at the time. A few life blips have gotten in her way with the a1c work, but I'm really proud of the progress she's made. So...

Hi everybody! We found out my partner is pregnant this weekend (2-3 weeks, so very early days)! We phoned her nurse on Saturday, and she said she would pass the information onto relevant team members, which is cool. We were just wondering how soon other women had been contacted by their teams...

And this is why I'm now really glad I put this post up! A lot can change in 8-9 years, and I really can't get my head around why they are so reluctant to redo them! So, being the basic I am when it comes to gathering data, short of carbs and insulin doses, what data should we be tracking? Sorry...

I wouldn't expect a diagnosis :) should have said I was looking to see if anyone had been through similar experiences. She has said about keeping a diary and going into the finest of details. She's only 28, but...

I appreciate your reply It's not that I necessarily want to put a label on it, but we've improved her blood sugars greatly, from late 70s/early 80s, down to mid 40s. Its just that her conditions seem to be getting worse? And as much as its irreversible, there are things that can help. Like...

Hi. I'm gonna apologise in advance for the long winded post it's my first time, but my fiancé and I are in need of some advice if anyone can help? I'll give a little background info before I get into our problem My fiancé is a type 1 Diabetic, and has been for the past 22 years. Around her...
