Hi,
It's my first time posting on the forum. I'm 5 weeks pregnant and although I'm really pleased about it (it's taken over two years to concieve), I can't help feeling a sense of dread of what's to come! I feel so nervous about managing my blood sugars over the next 9 months that it really is taking the joy out it. Does anyone else feel the same?
My pregnancy with my little boy who is now 4 years old really did scare me at times with rapidly dropping blood glucose throughout the trimesters and eventually I went into premature labour at 30 weeks.
So far blood glucose has been in target range which is also confusing me as I was already seeing the effects of blood glucose changing in my previous pregnancy. What did you/ are you suffering from in pregnancy in first trimester highs or lows and when did they notice them?
Sorry to sound all doom and gloom (I'm normally chirpy, I promise!). Obviously I don't want to tell family/friends yet so I feel I am going insane with anxiety due to last pregnancy.
Any advice/experiences will be greatly recieved, thanks for reading!
