i sympathize, diabetes is not easy sigh, but you can do it! i would try get word on obgyn's who specialize in diabetic pregnancies because from what i have seen diabetes treatment seriously varies according to your endo. i hope i dont sound out of turn speaking as i dont have diabetes, just lived with the fam having it so i wanted to pass on what i know.

I am not diabetic, but I am diabetic during pregnancy. 2 out of 3 pregnancies I have been diabetic. My 2nd pregnancy, I controlled it with nighttime insulin (for fasting numbers) and diet. My 3rd pregnancy, I controlled it with insulin. I had to shoot up 3-4x a day. It was much worse this last time around.


Good luck to you!

Oh I know how you mean! My mother has type 2, and her father & a couple of her brothers have type 1. Also my father has pre-diabetes (type 2) and his mum is type 2 aswell. It's like I don't have a shit-show for not inheriting it! I was diagnosed with Insulin Resistance about three years ago and I've lost some weight so my risk of getting diabetes is lower now compared to what it was. I hate inheriting everything, when my brothers have nothing. It's very frustrating
