Diagnosis, labour and the time after was pretty traumatic in a lot of ways.I’m on the wrong side of 30 now and my husband and I have always wanted a second baby but I haven’t felt ready due to coming to grips with managing diabetes. Ive started the omnipod 5 about a month ago and levels are starting to get better although I’m still a little way of where they want you to be for pregnancy. I’m feeling the clock tick though! I’m very anxious about doing the baby damage, about complications in pregnancy for me or baby and about managing changing blood glucose levels (hypos and hypers). Is there any advice/reassurance/tips that people could give? I’m already on the higher dose folic acid.</blockquote>
