*hugs* lol this is my 3rd pregnancy but first as a diabetic and nothing about it is exciting, it's all medicalised which I know is all so I can have a beautiful healthy baby but it's a nightmare I'm at the hospital every week at the mo, it's the mental side of its too the constant worrying that...

Also I was 21 when diagnosed I'm now 25, 26 this year so I wasn't diagnosed that young and I can normally cope with anything life throws at me but this is hard and now I'm pregnant and trying even harder then I already was to try n get my levels normal for my little peanut n it's like I'm...

And like I said everybody has a story and everybody has their own stresses and lives beyond diabetes, I can understand about depression and a bad past, everyone deals with things in different ways, to be honest the amount I eat and comfort eat I should be 50 stone lol whenever I've been feeling...

Then yes in that respect I agree, if a "skinny" person has something wrong with them that could have been prevented in some way, if they know the implications of what they are doing then yes its self inflicted, like an alcoholic can't be shocked when they are told they have liver failure because...

I'm sorry but this has completely angered me!! If it was as simple as being intolerant then we would just have to cut it out not take life saving medication!! It's not like being lactose intolerant is it!! Background insulin keeps us alive, we do not produce it, even if we didn't eat carbs n...
