Hi
Some of you may remember me (haven’t posted on here in a very long time). I hope everyone is well. As some of you may or may not remember I had a daughter 4 years ago. I had her 6 weeks early due to her growing too fast and my sugars being a bit high. Any how she is now being assessed for ASD and other genetic conditions...awaiting a blood test in January. She is developmentally quite behind her peers at school, and her speech is a bit delayed. She is also well above the 99.6th percentile with her height and weight despite having a relatively healthy diet. She has mild hypertelorism which is an abnormally increased distance between the eyes.
I know no one is probably really going to know the answer to this but I couldn’t sleep last night as it’s on my mind, but could her health issues be because of my diabetes and being type 1. I completely forgot about the risks from when I was pregnant and because she was okayish at birth (had respiratory distress shortly after birth and needed CPAP) she was in NICU for 2 weeks due to feeding. Like I said I know no one will probably know the answer but could me being diabetic and the high sugars even though I got my hba1c down (probably not enough) be a factor in this?
