Hi everyone, I'm T1, age 37, HBA1c 7.0. Hardly a glowing description... lol :wink:
Back in August I got pregnant after 5 months of trying. We were, of course over the moon. 7 weeks later we were pregnant no more and utterly devastated.
I can't help but wonder if it happened because of my T1. During the 3 weeks I knew I was pregnant I'd had my first ante natal appointment and was trying desperately to get my bg right down 1 hour after eating. I rarely got it down that quick but almost always within 2 hours.
We are TTC again and I'm absolutely bricking it and can't help worrying that it was caused by the T1 and will happen all over again. But the stress the worry is causing won't help the TTC. It's a vicious circle...
Just really wondered if anyone else has been in my position and went on to have a successful pregnancy? And if anyone has any tips on how to manage the bg's when it (hopefully) happens for us again? I did wonder about a pump.
Thanks.....
