Hiya thanks for the reply. The first 12 weeks I couldn't get it to go above 6 and now the opposite! Consultant said baby is formed its just high blood sugars make it get too big. Can only.do our best though! Good luck im aiming for 36 due to previous problems not diabetes related xIt's hard to get the balance between hypos and stability isn't it when your pregnant. I'm trying to eat as little amount of carbs as possible especially in a morning as this is when I have the big spikes. I can tolerate more carbs in the afternoon but still get lots of unexpected hypos. I just try and check as much as possible as sometimes I miss the warning signs and don't start to feel it while about 2.5 so just be careful with that. Slc I've got a 4 year old too but wasn't on an insulin pump with that pregnancy and I am now, I thought my control was good with my first but the pump has made my control much much better. Are you on a pump or do you inject?
Well I'm 35+2 and baby was measuring really big at 32 weeks, his growth has slowed down though now and he seems to be steadily growing on a normal growth line which I'm so happy about. Fingers crossed if he stays growing steadily I will get as close to 38 weeks as possible, hoping to go into natural labour but not holding my breath!!
Don't think I ever updated this. Had a baby boy at 36+2 after static growth between 32-36 weeks he was estimated 5lb 6 but was 7lb 3. Had steroids pre birth but was in die gal care 10 days due to breathing problems at birth and low blood sugars. He's 4 weeks old now though and doing brilliantly. Good luck to all of you still pregnant x
