Hi all,
I literally have just joined the forum in hope of some help/guidance or even support if anyone has any!!
I am currently around 12/13 wks pregnant and have really high blood sugar levels. My consultant thinks I have type one diabetes unrelated to pregnancy due to noone in my family having diabetes and I am only 27 years of age. He also told me that it is far to early for gestational diabetes to set it. I am currently taking insulin 4 times a day and even with trying to stick to low carb diet the levels arent coming down.
In short I am worried sick as none of the consultants will give me a straight answer as to whether this baby is going to be ok..
All i can read is horror stories online about horrendous labour and all the complications that can arise. Even the fact that the baby could be abnormally bigger - which might I add i wouldnt care as long as they arrive safely.
Has anyone had a similar experience??
I would really be grateful for any advice and thank you for even taking the time to read this.
