Yes, while I wouldn't have thought there is anything to do with your diabetes stopping you getting pregnant you should be aware that the target hba1c for diabetic ladies trying to conceive is under 48. If you're on any oral meds, other than metformin, they may also need to be discontinued for trying to conceive.

Have a look at the NICE guidelines for management of pre conception and preganancy in diabetics to see what support you could expect - https://www.nice.org.uk/guidance/ng3/chapter/1-recommendations
