Hello again lovely ladies.
I was previously here under 'sarahkylie88' but I forgot my password and the email linked to that username no longer works. I think because I was inactive it automatically signed me out!!
I'm a type one diabetic and have been for almost 20 years! As some of you know I had my son, Arlo; last year he was born at 27 weeks and lived for 6 weeks.
All of my complications were non diabetes related and were possibly genetic (although so extremely rare that genetics specialists have not been able to figure out any syndrome or condition) and premature rupture of membranes!
We were told to wait a year to ttc again. We have decided to come off contraception after 44 weeks which means I only have one pill packet left and I'm absolutely terrified!!!
My hba1c before conceiving and for the 6 months I was pregnant was 5.8%.
I know it's not as good as that this time!! I just can't seem to get my mojo back! It is good enough to ttc at 6.7% but I want to tighten up but I seem to be really struggling!!! I'm due another hba1c this month! So I'm hoping it's slightly improved!!!
I seem to struggle with dropping sugars before bed and in the morning, but when I reduce carb ration I go too high!! It's really frustrating as if I am lucky enough to fall pregnant again I want to be confident with my sugars as the pregnancy after the loss of our gorgeous boy will be extremely stressful anyway, diabetes aside!
Sorry I've been missing in action, as you can imagine we have had a lot to cope with as a family!!!
