I already have a 7 year old son and did not realise I was pregnant when I was younger, but luckily no birth defects and had taken no folic acid, no idea what was going on with my sugars!
My partner and I are trying for a baby, I'm due to take a test around the 20th, I'm taking the 5mg of folic acid, but worried sick as too many mornings now my sugar level is in the early teens, highest was 15.1 (some good mornings too though!)
I'm aware the time of conception and sugar levels being good is a very important factor in pregnancy (as well as good sugar control throughout), just incredibly worried incase if I am pregnant, I'm doing the baby harm. It's stressing me out so much, and I have no idea why my sugars are creeping up so much during the night as it's always around 6 or 7/8 when I go to bed.
Did anyone on here experience slightly high sugars early on in pregnancy and what were the outcomes?
