[QUOTE="Gran25, post: 2076992, member: 489173"] My reply to the OP was meant to be a general positive & supportive one, informed by 40 years of being a professional midwife (now retired) not prescriptive in any way. Having gestational diabetes and being pregnant with Type 1 diabetes require very different management. In my country, the care is team based with perinatologists, endocrinologists guiding the individual's care and specialised clinics with diabetes care nurses & dieticians. All family doctors, midwives and obstetricians refer their moms to these clinics for detailed and individualised care plans...it's not something that can be hashed over on an online forum. Peer support is awesome but please seek the advice of the professional medical team in your country. [/QUOTE]
