I went to see my diabetes team via planning for a pregnancy .
Was told to see my doctor for folic acid then ring and book an appointment for pre conception clinic .
So I'm at my doctors and after my folic acid had been prescribed she told me that I could start trying after so many months on folic acid , then go back to her once I'm pregnant and she will then transfer me on to the hospital with where I need to be with seeing midwife ect .
So I said what about the pre conception clinic and she said she's never heard of it and doesn't understand why I've been told to go here before I've conceived . She's a really good doctor that's what I don't get , it seems the diabetes team have scared me with all this different stuff where as my doctor said to calm down and it's fine and to do what she has said . So what an earth do I do I've been told two different things and now I'm so lost .
And I've looked up to try and find a number for the pre conception clinic and can not find anything .
Hmmmmm .
