[QUOTE="anniemai, post: 87465, member: 21093"] Hello I am 38 Years old and have been Diabetic since I was 11. I have two beautiful Sons and yes i was scared about the whole 'pregnancy' thing with my condition. However i managed to keep pre pregnancy (about 5 months ) a really close eye on my sugars and managed a hbaic of less than 7, I think (however i'm not medically trained) that pre pregnancy sugars are very important the better they are the better chance you are giving your baby. keeping sugars stable through pregnancy wasn't as difficult as i had expected i had a few ups and down but no major trauma. I delivered both Sons naturally ( i had thought with my first, i wouldn't even bother reading the books as I was sure as a diabetic women i'd be having a 10lber and so would have a c - section!. (7lb 12oz and 6lb 5oz both weights). Just be the same as any women would be ,take care of yourself follow a sensible diet, and do what the Drs tell you. I was told that my children would have about the same chance of having Diabetes as anyone elses as there father is 'Normal'. They are 11 and 7 and show no signs yet [/QUOTE]
