Hi not sure if this is a silly question . I’ve had 2 babies c sections . Diabetes has been all over the place last while due to me just not being as careful as I should be ! Is there any chance I could pull things back to have another baby? I’m 32

Obviously this is a question you need to ask your medical team, who know your history, but at 32 I would have thought you would probably have plenty of time for another pregnancy should you wish one.

There isn't, as far as I know, a limit on the number of caesareans you can have and I am of the firm personal belief that it is never too late to improve your diabetic control. I only had two chldren (two caesareans) because of horrendous hypos during my pregnancies but if cgms had been available then I would definitely have gone for 3.

Disclaimer: I am not a doctor and the above are just opinions, you should talk to your medical team.

Good luck, whatever happens.
