[QUOTE="azure, post: 1386404, member: 39639"] The 100g was recommended as a minimum after a study found that the foetuses of mice showed cognitive defects as they grew after birth. So no, not a general low carb fear, more a concern for foetal development. There was an earlier study that suggested too few carbs was unwise too, but I can't find that one. I sympathise with your "Doctor!!" comment. I can't say I'm at all keen to see mine unless I really have to! But to be insulted by your consultant is awful! Unbelievable! Good job he's gone if he was like that! Remember you should be able to,swap consultants if you get a poor one. Although I'd hope you never had such rudeness again. I'm not sure what the process would be for you, but would you be able to speak to a diabetes nurse first? Or a midwife maybe? Someone you feel happier with. [/QUOTE]
