[QUOTE="Lelliee, post: 2335568, member: 522683"] A bit of background- I was contacted during my booking bloods of pregnancy at 10 weeks and told I needed to urgently get to the hospital, my Hba1c was 76. I had no idea what this meant! I was put on insulin 4 times a day- novorapid and levemir and told I was almost definitely type 1 diabetic. During my pregnancy my levels fluctuated and I was given a freestyle Libre to help monitor my levels, my Hba1c mid way was 36. My insulin requirements fluctuated too- by mid pregnancy I was on metformin alone and no insulin, the type of diabetes I had was still considered unidentifiable. Towards the end I required levemir again and novorapid with breakfast and my Hba1c was 42. I had my baby boy 22.7.20 weighing 7lbs 13oz at 38+5 emergency c-section due to fetal distress. His blood sugars were monitored and 24hrs later we were both discharged home. My Hba1c a few weeks after birth was 49. A few weeks ago I had my first full panel of diabetes blood tests post pregnancy, which I was told would decipher which type I had. Today I had my consultation over the phone and the consultant told me my numbers... Please help... They were drawn fasting at 10.20am and are as follows: Hba1c- 42 Glucose- 8.8 Insulin- 29 C-peptide- 846 Antibodies- negative I understand the first two, however after that I'm a bit lost! Thank you for any help. [/QUOTE]
