[QUOTE="Mutley, post: 1888013, member: 98012"] [B]Congratulations to you both on your forthcoming marriage. I have had diabetes type 1 since being 4 years old. I remember asking the very same questions when my husband and I wanted to start having a family. I was told firstly to get your diabetes under control, I also started taking a tablet folic acid, which I think everyone is advised to take now. It helps build the bones etc. Once pregnant, which happened quite quickly with all mine. Then we had regular check ups to make sure our sugar levels were ok. Where I lived it was the diabetes clinic at the then Birmingham Maternity Hospital and our diabetes doctor from our hospital would also attend. We all got to know each other well. I must admit that a few hypos during the pregnancy, but I felt so well. I had 3 sons and an unplanned daughter, all healthy. [/B] [/QUOTE]
