[QUOTE="Cloe-1992, post: 945164, member: 111833"] Morning sweetheart ;) ( I'll grab my phone in a bit and text you :wacky: ) Having a higher hba1c doesn't make it harder to conceive it's just not good for baby . Here's a few reasons why [LIST] [*]not developing normally and having congenital abnormalities – particularly heart and nervous system abnormalities [*]being [URL='http://www.nhs.uk/Conditions/pregnancy-and-baby/pages/coping-with-stillbirth.aspx']stillborn[/URL] or dying soon after birth [*]having health problems shortly after birth (such as heart and breathing problems) and needing hospital care [*]developing obesity or diabetes later in life [/LIST] We get told all this at pre conception , it's important to have tight control at the start of pregnancy and all the way through . Also is very important for the first 8 weeks as that's when baby starts to develop everything for later life . But is just as important for the rest of the journey too . It's such strict targets but they obviously give you them for a reason , is hard when you want a baby and your hba1c is high but it's worth waiting like you know for a better outcome . Yes others have had healthy baby's on higher hba1c . But is best to have it lower . xxx [/QUOTE]
