Hi

I am a type 1 diabetic and have been for 3 years.

Me and my husband have been trying for a baby and I finally got my hba1c on target for this in December when I was at the diabetic clinic.

This last couple of weeks my sugar levels in the morning have been 13/14 etc but when I have been going to bed they have been 7/8 etc.

I have upped my lantus from 26 to 28 but doesn't seem to be helping!

I am so gutted because i was on target and now worried that with me trying to conceive this will affect.

any help greatly appreciated.
 
It could be that you are dropping low during the night and so releasing stored glucose as a result. Would be worth doing some tests during the night to see what's going on.
 
You could try doing a few tests in the night to see if you're dropping and then body releases glucogen to counteract it. Bit of a pain but worth doing !
