Hi, ive been a type one diabetic for 25 years. Im currently on Levemir and Novo Rapid, I want to be put onto the pump but I am struggling with getting a referral from my Diabetes team, for almost 5 years ive been asking about being put onto a pump and ive been ignored everytime I feel like they...

I'm a type one diabetic have been for 19 years ( diagnosed at 3), since I've had my little boy I'm always worrying if he would get type one diabetes too. My doctors never spoke to me if he could get it too. Thanks in advance

I've been diabetic since I was 3, I'm 22 now and after years of not controlling my diabetes I managed to get my hba1c down to a 60 last year. I now have a 4month old boy and struggling to remember to inject as I'm a new mum and trying to get the hang of being a mum. I spoke to my doctor on...

I've only ever wanted one baby, and me and my partner have both agreed about this and thank you for the wishes :)

Hi All! I was just wondering how all you lovely ladies labour went. I should be getting my labour date on Monday and I gotta say I'm nervous! This is my first and last baby [emoji4] Would anyone be able to share how their labour went, I'm mixed about how I deal with pain and I'm worried about...

I'm 34 weeks pregnant and when I last spoke to my midwife my hba1c was 50, last month when I went to my growth scan baby was weighing 4lb 12oz. I have another scan in 2 weeks time to see how big baby is! The consultant informed me that baby is a little big but I'm also a 5ft 1 lady so they wasnt...

Hi everyone! Spoke to my consultant today and she informed me that I will be given a date I will be induced in 2 weeks! I’m so nervous but so happy.

Thank you so much! I’m getting more and more nervous now, this is my first baby and I’ve always been put off by having a baby because of the ending part [emoji23] I hate the thought of pain and everyone tells me that I’ll forget about everything once he’s here! My midwife said that they aim to...

Hi all! I’m a type one diabetic, injecting. I’m feeling more and more impatient now as I was hoping to start doing my birth plan or knowing what would be going on about how my little boy will be delivered, I had a consultant appointment last week and wasn’t told much. I was informed that baby...

Hi all, I’m a type one diabetic and I’m also 28 weeks pregnant [emoji7] I’m starting to think more about my labour and that, I just want to know how everyone else’s pregnancies went and how there labour went. I’m really nervous about the labour more because if I have a c section I’ll have to...

My hba1c has never been great! At the beginning of this year I found out they was 69, at the beginning of September I found out I was pregnant, I’m now 13 weeks and my hba1c is still not brilliant but I’m slowly getting there. I don’t think there is “time” it should happen. If it happens it...

I like to eat a lot of different things I’m not really a fussy eater it’s just hard when I have no income so I can’t actually afford buying meals for myself I have to just eat what’s in the house, I’m trying to not eat so much carbs during my pregnancy but it’s hard because when I’m getting...

I was told that eating high fibre foods was slow realising carbs and was better for me

She did inform me that she knew people who had perfect hba1c but the child was still born with problems so it does make me think that in a way I could do everything right and something still be wrong with my unborn child, but doesn’t mean I’m just going to do what I want but I just want this...

She wants me to be only a high fibre diet but being part of such a big family with also special needed brother and sister it’s hard to make change to dinners as it will affect them, I try to eat a high fibre breakfast and lunch but I’ve tried explaining this to her and she just doesn’t seem to...
