[QUOTE="Sarahstar82, post: 1254988, member: 215496"] Thank you [USER=11023]@tigger[/USER] and [USER=248258]@Loulou52[/USER] for your input. I'm 34 weeks and soon will be getting a date for induction. Next week I see my DSN who will set my pump for pre and post labour. From what I gather the diabetes team would prefer me to be on a sliding scale and feel that I should concentrate on labour and allow the midwives to deal with the blood sugars. They have said that they will help if I want to stay on a pump but if my bg goes to 7.9 I have to be put on the sliding scale. The diabetes team will be putting together a strict plan so I have no worries. I just need to decide what is best for me. At the moment I have to refill my pump daily and may find it too much hassle if I have to do that whilst in labour. There are a few things I need to consider before I make my mind up. Either way I'm feeling confident, calm and excited. [/QUOTE]
