[QUOTE="ebony321, post: 180763, member: 17199"] My father was diagnosed aged 14, and i was diagnosed aged 20. I have a sister who is 25 now and doesn't have diabetes The chances are slim so i've been told. But if your child does develop diabetes, at least you can be confident as you have diabetes yourself you have experience already and know what to look out for. There is specualation wether its herediatary or not, but i think it's not, just that if you have similar genetic make up as a parent then you might be more likely. But i wouldn't worry too much, Its something you can't stop happening if it does. I hope all is well and you enjoy being a daddy :) [/QUOTE]
