[QUOTE="gemmag, post: 2287098, member: 421551"] Hi ladies, I'm new on here and I am so glad I found you all! I think have very similar experiences to some of you. I am 39, T1D for 10 years. I have a son who will turn 2 in October. Pregnancy with him wasn't too bad, i had a few minor issues but it was stress levels and emotions that was the difficult part. I had him at 36 weeks via c section. He was in the nicu for 13 days (hypoglycaemia andoxygen issues) and i wasn't discharged until then either. My recovery from the c section was not great. I had huge blood loss during the c section due to the placenta basically falling apart and the docs having to fish around to get it out! My partner and I are now trying for our second. In fact I may be pregnant but my period is not due until next week so will have to wait a bit longer before doing a test. My sugar levels have been slightly raised the past week -10 days and I currently have increased my bolus by 20%. I just don't remember experiencing this first time around. Not until 2 trimester at least. My hba1c was checked in June and was 6.4% so normally my control is pretty good. Did anyone else experience highs in first few weeks of conception/ pregnancy? I am desperately trying not to stress but it's so hard! I had a miscarriage in February so that is also on my mind. Gemma x [/QUOTE]
