Hi all
I am type 2 diagnosed almost 3 years ago. Started metformin around a year ago. Bloods still not under control. Last hba1c was 64.
We haven't had much of a sex life for quite a few years.
Anyway things got a little bit carried away a few weeks ago and I'm late for my period. We have 3 children 15, 17 and 20.
I'm really scared because just over 4 years ago I fell pregnant after 3 years of trying and babys heart stopped beating at 8+2 and I miscarried 20 days after finding out.
After being diagnosed diabetic I now believe the miscarriage was possibly due to undiagnosed/untreated diabetes just because of some symptoms I had that I didn't think anything of at the time but since diagnosis have realised they are symptoms of diabetes.
I know there are risks possibly more than with a "normal" pregnancy but has anyone carried a healthy baby when blood sugars were high at conception?
Will be testing tomorrow but so scared
Thanks in advance for any help/advicr
