Hi all, had scan today and there is a little dot with a flickering heart beat [emoji173]️ just under 6 weeks they reckon! Now I’m in a mess as nausea and flushes and shivers have set in... not coping well at all! Any advise on settling the nausea? I’m finding it really hard to eat anything...

Thanks guys! Will see what happens at Wednesdays scan and appointment. Hopefully I’ll be able to stop worrying a bit if all looks well! Xx

Fmacd- WOW! Two sets of twins? That’s amazing! I’ve heard about the hypos but at the moment I seam to be pretty stable... hope that’s not a bad sign! Myarnton1 - I had a lovely chat with the hospital diabetic team today who have called me in for a early scan next week. Have now cancelled my...

Thank you! On the folic for a few months now, just started taking pregnacare yesterday! Wow... that’s some crazy stuff! Appointment with the diabetic people in a weeks time so hoping all is well there. I was told by a midwife they do no early scans so have booked myself in for a privet one for...

Thank you all [emoji4] still early days and very daunting to think someone else’s little life is in your hands. Did anybody have an earlier scan than the usual 12 week?

Thank you Antje77!

Hi, I’m a Type 1 and just found out via a missed period and pregnancy test we are having a baby! No clue what to expect or what happens next regarding doctors or nurses? Any advice would be much appreciated [emoji4] Laura xx

Thank you all so much for your replies [emoji171] I’m not your perfect diabetic but I do try. It’s so very hard when you see all the pregnant women just getting on with their normal routine and knowing if it happens to you, it would be such a regimented procedure. Did any of you actually enjoy...

Is this due to people having poor control of their diabetes or something out of a diabetics control? Looking at pregnancy is so scary as it is, then reading all these horror stories just make it some how seem not worth doing. THEN when you finally think 'Ok, lets give it a try...' you get told...

Slip - I think your next holiday maybe Croatia! Thanks for all your info, I'm used to holidaying in Iceland which is quite easy to control the old diabeties in -15 conditions! I had DKA 6 years ago and it's made me a bit jittery about hot countries due to the possibility of eating some dodgy...

Morning! Just wondered if any of you lovely type 1 Diabetics had been to Croatia? Bit concerned about the mozzis eating me due to possible high blood sugars? Also how my blood sugars will deal with the heat? Ant advice would've much appreciated [emoji16] also also what it's like over there...

Haven't been on here in a while but I need advise! The last 48 hours my bloods have been wild, usually quite well controlled and carb count BUT after 4 weeks off my weekly exercise class I returned on Tuesday evening ( not sure this has anything to do with it) my sugars dropped just before so...

Thank You :)

Hi! Does anyone know if Apple App Store has a carb counting to insulin ratio app? Just about to change over blood monitor and this new one doesn't carb count for me [emoji17] Thanks in advance!

According to research low carb dieting is mainly for type 2 diabetics, yes it can benefit a type 1 but no evidence to prove this as yet. Type one diabetics are advised to count carbs to insulin ratio by there diabetic teams. Sent from the Diabetes Forum App

Echoing other posts again, this is light hearted, we do not need people jumping on this telling ha about our actions, we are big enough and have lived with this long enough to realise we are not saints, we try hard at being a 'good' diabetic but it's actually nice to hear other people have their...

At last! Somebody else who drinks eats and smokes! Yes smoking is bad but each to their own! Sent from the Diabetes Forum App
