[QUOTE="eabhamurphy, post: 1692787, member: 21358"] I saw the preconception clinic (nurse lead) every two weeks up to conception and then at the same interval now that I'm pregnant but with weekly phonecalls. They got me a pump as I was not able to eliminate highs without hypos (and asked me to hold off on pregnancy plans until I was well established and managing it well) and then got the CGM add on for my pregnancy and for breastfeeding months as well as I lost hypo awareness in my last pregnancy. I did my first pregnancy outside of the preconception clinic on multiple daily dose injections and it was so much harder and I had hypos all the time. They are just so supportive. Much better than any other health professionals I've seen. This pregnancy is so much better than my first. Make sure to get into a clinic before conception. It wasn't made obvious to me that such a clinic existed until I was 16 weeks with my first and seeing the consultant. Then it felt too late to engage with their help and wouldn't have been the right time to change therapy completely. Good luck! [/QUOTE]
