I went to 38 weeks with him, they talked about a section at 36, but they waited till 38. X

I was exactly the same! I was moving house, pregnancy unexpected, I was taking a prescribed drug that wasn't licenced in pregnancy! They said I had the option to terminate because of this... I was 15 weeks when I found out so this distressed me enormously!!! I ignored all of that but the worry...

I'm sure my boy was 5lb something @ 32 weeks... But he was big when he was born? They can't really tell with the weight anyway! It's a tota guess!

Hi @columbiana7263 Nice to meet u! I'm type 1 diabetic for 18 years! And now on my second diabetic pregnancy! [emoji1405]It definitely is a roller coaster! I've certainly had my ups and downs! It's a massive pain in the arise sometimes but if we keep ourselves happy and healthy, there's...

I'd have thought he would have put u on a lower dose as that's that's what they did with me! I used to be on 32u levemir and when I switched to tresiba (as I started reacting to levemir) and I started on 26u and dropped it to 24u and with the tresiba I even used to lower the dose by 2 units if I...

7.8 before bed rose to 9.1 at 12 am (since being on a pump I feel very high at this level especially at night) correction dose given and 4.0 this morning [emoji106]

I agree with @azure I've only started strictly carb counting recently too! I kind of taught myself and I have found it brill! I find that my carb to insulin ratio really helps keep my sugar level. I had to start this when I began the insulin pump. I think bread may push my sugar up more than a...

I'm so glad things r looking better for u @britney911! I had dawn phenomenon exactly the same as u! A split dose of long acting insulin helped but didn't solve the issue! I'd be low in the night then be up at 15/16 mmol in the morning! It was incredibly frustrating as the daytimes were fine! I...

Hi @kerry1986 I agree with @azure the first weeks are the most difficult! I was so worried and panicked over the slightest thing! This is also my second pregnancy and I also had a tough time with my first! So Naturally I was terrified! This time I am on the pump where as last time I tried to...

I had this during my last pregnancy! The surgery phoned me and said, "do you realise how many strips you are using at the moment?" My reply was'" I think my flaming fingertips could tell u that!!!" (The reply in my head was slightly more explicit!!) This time my diabetes centre ask me every...

Thanks ladies!! Do u think it's just something they have to say?!? Lol I mean I'm not even hungry most of the time when I have to snack, but my levels r what they need to be!! They can't have everything!! It's just when u r doing all u can for your sugar they have to add an extra stress!! I...

Hello! I'll start on a positive... I am now 17 weeks and heard my baby's heartbeat for the first time today! [emoji173]️ I've had a pretty stressful, work related, few weeks and I was worried about my stress levels, so hearing it was the most wonderful sound! [emoji177] My bloods have been...

Hello, Yes! I have!! I actually didn't realise I was pregnant when they put me on it. I am type 1 diabetic and I was on it as part of a trial. I must have been on it for up to 7 weeks when I was pregnant! The scared the absolute life out of me weird telling me all the possible side effects and...

Hi @newtonj Welcome!! It sounds like you are doing an amazing job judging by your hba1cs! Don't stress, stop worrying so much! I'm almost 17 weeks and have had a couple of 15/16s and worse at the very start of my pregnancy (before I even knew) as long as u act on them quickly and are on top...
