My sugars returned to normal and I breastfeed for an extended period. My daughter was 5 when I got my 'proper' type 1 diagnosis and I have not been pregnant again although many people here have so can offer advice.So for me it took a while for the full blown diabetes to kick in, but you can manage it well (and your family). We are all different and there are a lot of late onset people here who have managed to control things through diet for long periods.Good to hear your team are looking after you and that a close eye will be kept on you and baby. Let us know how you get on.</blockquote>
