[QUOTE="AmyGreen, post: 325071, member: 48441"] Thanks again for replies. I really do appreciate it. I'm 25 yrs old. My mum is Type 2 diabetes and the doctors think I may have been diabetic for years. Up until the last few years I was severely overweight and have lost over 5 and a half stones, although putting some of that back on. I think it's likely to have Type 2, but can't be diagnosed officially until after the baby is born and then we will see what my treatment will then be. I still have good days and bad days. I'm finding out what food works best for me and what doesn't. Get a bit down if I've eaten something and it's given me a high number, but do want some variety in my meals so trial and error. I do have a diabetic midwife I can talk to and I've done to a diabetic clinic (for pregnant women) several times as well, as it will be more them who will be monitoring my pregnancy. Again I am so glad I've found this forum as everyone is so nice and friendly and very generous with their advice, it's a wonderful place to come to. [/QUOTE]
