I have Type 2.
My last 2 pregnancies where very tough - 1st baby was born at 11lb 9oz (Undiagnosed Gestational Diabetes) and my 2nd baby was born with Spina Bifida/Hydrocephalus due to Type 2 and low folate levels..
Just wondering what I need to do to try and prepare myself for planning my next pregnancy.. My levels are usually single figures, I have been taking folic acid (low dose) for 10 months and need to make a drastic change to my diet - constantly crave sugar - any advice?
Thank you!
