[QUOTE="Toriroge, post: 1356703, member: 320285"] Hi Fliss, don't read any more horror stories! I won't let my self and just think positive. How funny that we were in the same situation! I have had my dating scan this week and everything looks fine! Baby was 13 weeks on Thursday the day we had scan and was just under 7cm just the right size for 13 weeks. Has any one spoke to you about being put on the pump? I was being referred and had a appointment in Cambridge before I knew I was pregnant. But because I am pregnant they fast tracked me and was put on a pump the monday before Christmas! It seems to keep my sugars much more steady and you actually take less Insulin using the pump. I really suffered with high blood sugars when I woke up in the mornings and often would be between 15 and 20!!! But the pump seems to be helping with my dawn phenomenon. Like you I sometimes can't keep those post meal sugars in track. Have you spoke to a diatcian? I was told to eat 20g of carbs for breakfast so only 1 slice of toast but then you can have another one a hour later. Also was told to keep lunch and dinner under 70g of carbs - I have gone over that when eating out etc but trying to keep to it when I'm at home. Hope some of that info helps?? Yeah it's tiring making a tiny human isn't it! I'm still feeling tired now but apparently you get your energy back in 2nd trimester. How are you doing on the morning sickness side of things??
