Hiya this is great! I too wish I'd had more support when I was pregnant with my daughter now 2 (and t1 diabetic). I think second time with my twins it was easier as knew more what to expect but had to contend with horrendous pain and sickness -and a toddler! In my experience it's only others that are in a similar position that really get it. I'm on a pump so personally feel I couldn't have had good control without one (been diabetic for nearly 35yrs too). I think the aftercare needs looking at though as midwives don't seem to get the consequences for a type1 mum after delivery (with my twins they were great). Good luck for the future xx
