I'm not pregnant, or even going to become pregnant yet, but it just occurred to me, as someone told me recently that diabetic women are much more likely to have to have a caesarean and that worried me a bit. I did used to think I wouldn't be able to have children (when I was little) as I knew a diabetic lady who didn't have children, but I don't think thats true with all people.. Although is it more likely there will be complications with the baby and with the pregnancy with a woman who has diabetes?
Is there a way you can make it less likely? (by doing exercises etc.?) Or is it just chance on the day, or how long you've had diabetes etc whether you do or not..?
Sorry, I just wanted to ask as I've never really thought about this before!
